Our lives are hanging in the balance   Or they're dangling by a thread   A spark of life brought down from an Angel   To raise the stranger from the dead      Once more we're cheating on The Reaper   With all the gypsy, still in our souls   'Cause I know there's a God up in Heaven   Who must love rock and roll      Once again we sail home to Sarasota   As the ocean awash, the gunwale   And she still keeps her head above water   Guess we're all live to tell this tale      And here's to the you for always hangin' in   Without you there's no reason to go   I'd be lying face down in some river   Waiting Angels to take me back home      Once again we sail home to Sarasota   With the ocean awash, the gunwale   She still keeps her head above water   Guess we're all live to tell this tale      Once again we sail home to Sarasota   With the ocean awash, the gunwale   But she still keeps her head above water   Guess we're all live to tell this tale
