jackson browne & david lindley – running on empty lyrics

[verse 1]
looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
in ’65 i was seventeen and running up 101
i don’t know where i’m running now, i’m just running on

[chorus]
running on, running on empty
running on, running blind
running into the sun
but i’m running behind

[verse 2]
gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
in ’69 i was twenty+one and i called the road my own
i don’t know when that road turned into the road i’m on

[chorus]
running on, running on empty
running on, running blind
running into the sun
but i’m running behind

[bridge]
everyone i know, everywhere i go
people need some reason to believe
if it takes all night, that’ll be all right
if i can get you to smile before i leave
[verse 3]
looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
i don’t know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feelsi
l look around for the friends that i used to turn to to pull me through
looking into their eyes i see them running too

[chorus]
running on
running on
running on
but i’m running behind

[verse 4]
now honey, you really tempt me
you know the way you look so kind
i wanna know who you are but i’m running behind
i don’t even know what i’m hoping to find
running into the sun but i’m running behind

[outro]
gracias!
