A mile out and
we're drivin' along
Things are calm then you say
Where are we goin'
Do you know the way
10 miles out and the warnin'
light's on
The map's wrong and I say
The car's overheatin'
we're done for today
Think about the way that we came
Does it make any difference
I don't really know who's to 
blame
When something goes wrong
And you know the tank's 
gettin' low
Neither one of us wants to fill it
When it all breaks down
Here we are runnin' on empty
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin' runnin' on E
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin'
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin' runnin' on E
We runnin' runnin on empty
10 miles out and
we gotta get towed
It's gettin' cold what a day
What are we doing
How did we lose our way
A mile out I can see a nice home
A light's on and I say
There's what we once had now 
we're far away
Think about the way that we came
Does it make any difference
I don't really know
who's to blame
When something goes wrong
And you know the tank's 
gettin' low
Neither one of us wants to fill it
When it all breaks down
Here we are runnin' on empty
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin' runnin' on E
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin'
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin' runnin' on E
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin'
I would trade it all back to get 
to a day
When the ride was okay
Seems like miles ago
But the road was too long for us
All the change and rust
Brought this ride to an end
Think about the way that we came
Does it make any difference
I don't really know
who's to blame
When something goes wrong
And you know the tank's 
gettin' low
Neither one of us wants to fill it
When it all breaks down
Here we are runnin' on empty
Think about the way that we came
Does it make any difference
I don't really know
who's to blame
When something goes wrong
And you know the tank's 
gettin' low
Neither one of us wants to fill it
When it all breaks down
Here we are runnin' on empty
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin' runnin' on E
We runnin' runnin on empty
We runnin'
