Running Empty For You

My father told me son long ago,

Never feel like your back is up against the wall.

I always wished that you’d be my better half

but mama always said that you would never last.

Man I wished I’d listened but I never learned

Never saw it coming til the bridge got burned

Time,

Is running out,

It’s Running out,

On me and you.

Love is breaking down

Breaking our hearts in two…

but I keep running empty

Running empty for you.

Your sister was the one who told me from the start

“I love her but she’s gonna rip your heart apart”

I just couldn’t see it through your thin disguise

And now I wish I never looked you in the eyes…

I know I should have listened to her good advice

Now I’m stuck here fightin with you day and night.

Time,

Is running out,

It’s Running out,

On me and you.

Love is breaking down

Breaking our hearts in two…

but, I keep running empty

Running empty for you.

Solo

Time,

Is running out,

It’s Running out,

On me and you.

Love is breaking down

Breaking our hearts in two…

I can’t keep running empty

Running empty for you.
