Everybody gets high sometimes, ya know?

What else can we do when we're feeling low?

So take a deep breath and let it go

You shouldn't be drowning on your own

And if you feel you're sinking, I will jump right over

Into cold, cold water for you

And although time may take us into different places

I will still be patient with you

And I hope you know

I won't let go

I'll be your lifeline tonight

I won't let go

I'll be your lifeline tonight

'Cause we all get lost sometimes, you know?

It's how we learn and how we grow

And I wanna lay with you 'til I'm old

You shouldn't be fighting on your own

And if you feel you're sinking, I will jump right over

Into cold, cold water for you

And although time may take us into different places

I will still be patient with you

And I hope you know

I won't let go (I won't let go, no no, no more)

I'll be your lifeline tonight

I won't let go

I'll be your lifeline tonight

Come on, come on

Save me from my rocking boat

I just want to stay afloat

I'm all alone

And I hope, I hope

Someone's gonna take me home

Somewhere I can rest my soul

I need to know

You won't let go (I won't let go, no no, no more)

I'll be your lifeline tonight

You won't let go

I'll be your lifeline tonight

I won't let go

I won't let go
