Looking out at the road rushing under my wheelsLooking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields'65, I was 17 and running up 101I don't know where I'm running now, I'm just running on
Running on (running on empty)Running on (running blind)Running on (running into the sun)But I'm running behind
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love aliveTrying not to confuse it, with what you do to survive'69, I was 21 and I called the road my ownI don't know when that road turned into the road I'm on
Running on (running on empty)Running on (running blind)Running on (running into the sun)But I'm running behind
Everyone 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 leave
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheelsI don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feelsLook around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me throughLooking into their eyes, I see them running too
Running on (running on empty)Running on (running blind)Running on (running into the sun)But I'm running behind
Honey, you really tempt meYou know the way you look so kindI'd love to stick around, but I'm running behind(Running on) You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find(Running blind) Running into the sun, but I'm running behind
Thank you
