When the future looks so gray
Life's hopes all fade away
And vanish in the blue
When my big chance
Slips through my hands
Leaving me with washed up plans
And broken dreams are allthe I dream too
[Chorus]
It's like you throw out your lifeline
Before I go under
I'm out on the deep end again
You been the Heaven sent
A desperate man depends on
When nothing else could pull him through
Now there's been times
Of sink or swim
I watched the pictures grow and then
And every time you show
Right up on cue
[Repeat Chorus]
'Till my number comes up
It's gonna be thumbs up (thumbs up)
My ship's comin' in
'Round the bend
Ooh ohh (mm mm)
Ooh ooh (ah ah)
Yeah-eh (yeah-eh)
It's like you throw out your lifeline
Again..
I see the rainbow's end
Your vote of confidence can
Brighten up the darkest hue
You have changed my tears to laughter
Made what seemed like sure disaster
Just a pa**ing phase
We all go through
[Repeat Chorus]
'Till my number comes up (woo hoo hoo)
It's gonna be thumbs up (thumbs up)
My ship's comin' in
'Round the bend
[Repeat Chorus to fade]
