Lifeboat - Paul Williams

On the times that I’m unhappy

With the kind of life that I lead

When my voice amounts to nothing

But another mouth to feed

When the situation’s hopeless

And the whole world’s let me down

When I’m sinking fast

And thinking

I’m gonna drown

Your love’s like a lifeboat

Pickin' me up from a stormy sea

Your love’s like a lifeboat

Always on time

Always room for me

You’re good for me

You’re my life

You are the wind in my sales

You are the truth to my tales

You’re good for me

On the rainy side or my life

When the road is rocky and rough

When I give my best and then some

And I’m told it’s not enough

When my spirit’s almost broken

And I’ve lost the will to bend

When I’m long on worry

Short on money and friend

Your love’s like a lifeboat

Pickin' me up from a stormy sea

Your love’s like a lifeboat

Always on time

Always room for me

You’re good for me

You’re my life

You are the wind in my sails

You are the truth in my tales

You’re good for me
