Lifeboat
Lyrics and Music by Woody Russell / ©℗ 2020, Woody Russell, Cats Up The Street Music, ASCAP
Don’t worry, love
Everything will be okay
We don’t need
Half the things we think we do
No need for tears
You’ll take good care of me
And I will take good care of you
And if it all comes down
Crashing all around us
I’ll be your lifeboat
C’mon, get aboard
Lifeboat, I’ll get us back to the shore
I’ve got you, dear friend
Just take my hand
And I’ll do whatever I can
Do for you
Have a cry on my shoulder
I understand
I’ve been there myself
A time or two
And if it all comes down
Crashing all around us
I’ll be your lifeboat
C’mon, get aboard
Lifeboat, I’ll get us back to the shore
If it all comes crashing down around us
Take my hand
If it all comes crashing down around us
C’mon, just get aboard
If it all comes crashing down around us
No need for tears
Steady yourself
And look straight ahead
Don’t let their madness
Distract and deter you
Rise with the tide
Let it lift you up
Now, reach for me
I know just what to do
