Wishbone Ash - Lifeline

Like a fighter that lost his will to kill
You knew it was time to go,
But as I lay in a state of surrender
You chose me to say your last hello.
Like a fighter that lost his will to kill
You knew it was time to go.
You came upon me
As I lay in a state of surrender.
You say you're not afraid
You know me well.
Because I felt you die
Why did you say you would touch me?
The wind blew sugar-sweet
As you passed that silver life line.
