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