lyrics

we were there when they started it all
built a world out of nothing
in a word or two
a promise was made and a dream came true

now we stare at the faces of all
and the path that we have chosen
say a word or two
a promise is made and the dream is replayed

holding on to the lifeline
keeping with the way we want it
holding on to the lifeline
the lifeline

as the dance begins we fascinate
how we find ourselves together
say a prayer or two
we do what we can do
but we are scared

as we take our love in our hands
place a brick upon a stone
will the faith we have drawn in the plans
turn this house into a home?

chorus

this time is not in vain
if we understand how the seasons change
the sky floods up with rain
when it clears the air
we can breathe again

now we’re on our way
let the sky turn black
let the seasons rage
our love will still remain
when we clear the air
when we clear the air

Best version of “Dancin’ On The Devils’ Elbow.” In 1971, when my Army Dad died, right before I started 6th grade, Grandpa drove me from Texas to his house at Devils Elbow, to spend the whole summer with him. I remember riding bikes on old Route 66, best summer ever !!! maine77s

Guadalupe
by Michael Roe

supported by 12 fans who also own “Lifeline”

I love hearing the sound of the beautiful sound of a poet, his instrument. Maybe dual singers( like my favorite version growing up and today, classic Simon & Garfunkel) this album feels warm to the soul. Crying out Loud's lyrics say the words with more class than I can. Every stripped down song is a gem. Ache beautiful on here is the cherry on top of the joy and feelings. every lyric of that song feels almost completely like I feel, and my poetry. Scary and aching. Doc Love has filled the order. perduabo777

This is a formative album for me that has aged so well. I had no idea at the time how well crafted the album was and am so thankful for this remaster and chance to add it to my physical collection. auraltecture
