It was just a matter of time
Before you needed me
It had to happen sooner or later
You'd get in too deep
You don't have to worry
You don't have to worry at all
And if you should stumble
I'll be there for you after the fall
Just remember to hold on tight
I know it's your life in my hands
Reach out for the one you trust
You've got to be strong
And keep holding on to the lifeline
Take my hand and don't let go again
I'll be around, I won't let you down
On that you can depend
Time and tide won't keep me
Won't keep me away from your side
If I am needed, I'll be there for you
Day or night
Just remember to hold on tight
You know it's my heart in your hands
Reach out for the one you trust
You've got to be strong
And keep holding on to the lifeline
