Lifeline
I'm floating
In the darkness of space
I'm drifting
Away from the place
I spent all my lifetime
Only connected by
My lifeline
There's a lifeline
Across space and time
Connecting
Everything that is mine
All the people in my past
All the people holding me fast
Reaching to the end of time
My lifeline
I'm slowly
Drifting off into space
I'm longing
For the rain on my face
Back in the place I call my home
Back with the people I've always known
There's a lifeline
Across space and time
Connecting
Everything that is mine
All the people in my past
All the people holding me fast
Reaching to the end of time
My lifeline
I look back
At the place I came from
I wonder
If it will always be home
Or if I will find a place in the stars
Even though they seem so far
