Yeah, burnin' the midnight oil
Well, I lost and it's a cryin' shame
Runnin' over everything she said
My world fell apart
Love has gone, I've got nowhere to run
I'm so high, I think I'll never be tired
Love has gone, I've got nowhere to run
And I'm tired of bein' alone
Love has gone, I've got nowhere to run
There's a voice in my head
But I gotta face it.
Feeling sad and I'm mad, all the bad luck that I've had
She's gone and I know
I tried to forget
I shoulda listened to someone
Love has gone, I've got nowhere to run
I shoulda listened to someone
Shoulda listened to someone
But where can I hide?
Yeah, burnin' the midnight oil
But love's still burning in my heart
Love has gone, I've got nowhere to run
I'm hurting inside
Hot water getting ready to boil
And I'm tired of bein' alone
The clock's striking twelve
Love turned to stone
Nowhere to go
Yeah, burnin', burnin' the midnight oil
That the pain is beginnin' to show
It's not over yet
Memories runnin' through my head
Love was a game
I shoulda listened to someone
I'm still trying to convince myself
Shoulda listened to someone
And I can't erase it
Yea, burnin' the midnight oil
And time is moving slow
I'll lay back on my bed
Love turned to stone
Drink coffee 'til my nerves are wired
Yeah, burnin' the midnight oil
