Jackson Browne Running On Empty Lyrics
Running On Empty by Jackson Browne
Here are some lyrics:
Running on Empty
From Jackson Browne's Running on Empty album
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
Looking back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
In sixty-five I was seventeen and running up 101
I 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 alive
Trying not to confuse it with what you do to survive
In sixty-nine 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
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 go
People need some reason to believe
I don't know about anyone but me
If it takes all night, that'll be all right
If I can get you to smile before I leave
Looking out at the road rushing under my wheels
I don't know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
Looking 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 me
You know the way you look so kind
I'd love to stick around but I'm running behind
You know I don't even know what I'm hoping to find
Running into the sun but I'm running behind

Trouble
From Lindsay Buckingham's Law and Order album
I really should be saying goodnight, little girl,
I really shouldn't stay any more.
It's been so long since I felt this way,
I've forgotten what love is for.
I should run on the double...
I think I'm in trouble,
I think I'm in trouble.
So come to me darlin', hold me tight,
Let your honey keep you warm.
It's been so long since anyone touched me,
I've forgotten what love is for.
I should run on the double...
I think I'm in trouble,
I think I'm in trouble.
