Lifeline Lyrics

I was a child when I knew that a song would be my lifeline
I lay dreaming when she came
and she sang her secrets to me
She sang about a love supreme,
and a heaven she said I would
surely someday see
and then she took me in her arms and
sang me all the way to freedom

Then she led me and placed me in the middle of a circle
where spirit singers embraced me and told me my true calling
They said you'll have to cry sometimes just to keep the sacred
song inside of you alive,
But as you sing it from your heart
you know we're singing right beside you

Singing..........freedom........calling
Throwing out a lifeline
lifeline.......lifeline
throwing out a lifeline

As the light fell I knew she had sung away my sorrows
taught me my own song to sing me through all of my tomorrows
no longer needing pain or shame,
no heartache on this morning filled with healing rain.
I know we will never part my spirit singer here beside me
