Running on, running blind
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to, to pull me through
But I'm running behind
Honey, you really tempt me
Running on, running on empty
Running on, running blind
In sixty-nine I was twenty-one and I called the road my own
Running on, running into the sun
People need some reason to believe
In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up one-o-one
But I'm running behind
I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
But I'm running behind
Running on, running blind
I don't know when that road turned onto the road I'm on
Running on, running into the sun
You know the way you look so kind
Running on, running on empty
Everyone I know, everywhere I go
I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on
Running on, running into the sun
But I'm running behind
I'd love to stick around
Running on
You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find
Looking into their eyes I see them running too
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
If it takes all night, that'll be all right
If I can get you to smile before I leave
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
I don't know about anyone but me
Running on, running on empty
Running behind
