Running on Empty

Lyrics

Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
 Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
 '65, I was 17 and running up 101
 I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on
 Running on (running on empty)
 Running on (running blind)
 Running on (running into the sun)
 But I'm running behind
 Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
 Trying not to confuse it, with what you do to survive
 '69, I was 21 and I called the road my own
 I don't know when that road turned into the road I'm on
 Running on (running on empty)
 Running on (running blind)
 Running on (running into the sun)
 But I'm running behind
 ♪
 Everyone I know, everywhere I go
 People need some reason to believe
 I don't know about anyone, but me
 If it takes all night, that'll be all right
 If I can get you to smile before I leave
 Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
 I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
 Look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
 Looking into their eyes, I see them running too
 Running on (running on empty)
 Running on (running blind)
 Running on (running into the sun)
 But I'm running behind
 Honey, you really tempt me
 You know the way you look so kind
 I'd love to stick around, but I'm running behind
 (Running on) You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find
 (Running blind) Running into the sun, but I'm running behind
 ♪
 Thank you
