Anouschka - Lifeline (Radio Edit) Lyrics

Well, his bar sure looks empty
'Bout as empty as my heart
But those bottles look like
They've got life left in them,
And I got time to talk
If you're buying, I don't mind trying
Stretching out the truth,
Doing a little denying to ease my pain
I need to remember the way that he held me,
And if it takes another drink, maybe you could save me
I wanna feel that rush of love again
So please be kind
Pretend that you're him tonight
Throw me, oh throw me, throw me a lifeline
Well, I know that beggars can't be choosy
But tell me, who's really choosing who?
I mean, look at us, we're both sitting here reminded
Of lovers we once knew
If you're buying, I don't mind trying
Stretching out the truth,
Doing a little denying to ease my pain
I need to remember the way that he held me,
And if it takes another drink, maybe you could save me
I wanna feel that rush of love again
So please be kind
Pretend that you're him tonight
Throw me, oh throw me, throw me a lifeline
When the sun comes up, I swear I'll deal with who I am
But can I rest here on this bar chair until then?
I need to remember the way that he held me,
And if it takes another drink, maybe you could save me
I wanna feel that rush of love again
So please be kind
Pretend that you're him tonight
Throw me, oh throw me, throw me a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline
