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