Lirik Running On Empty

Jackson Browne

Running on EmptyThe Doobie Brothersfrom Jackson Browne's Running on Empty albumLooking out at the road rushing under my wheelsLooking back at the years gone by like so many summer fieldsIn sixty-five I was seventeen and running up one-on-oneI don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running onRunning on-running on emptyRunning on-running blindRunning on-running into the sunBut I'm running behindGotta do what you can just to keep your love aliveTrying not to confuse it with what you do to surviveIn sixty-nine I was twenty-one and I called the road my ownI don't know when that road turned into the road I'm onRunning on-running on emptyRunning on-running blindRunning on-running into the sunBut I'm running behindEveryone I know, everywhere I goPeople need some reason to believeI don't know about anyone but meIf it takes all night, that'll be all rightIf I can get you to smile before I leaveLooking out at the road rushing under my wheelsI don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feelsI look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me throughLooking into their eyes I see them running tooRunning on-running on emptyRunning on-running blindRunning on-running into the sunBut I'm running behindHoney you really tempt meYou know the way you look so kindI'd love to stick around but I'm running behindYou know I don't even know what I'm hoping to findRunning into the sun but I'm running behind
