Lyrics

Verse 1

Midnight rain is tapping on the glass

Counting seconds, watching hours pass

This empty room is echoing your name

Left with the shadows and a guttering flame

I never knew a space could feel so wide

Until the day you stepped outside

Chorus

'Cause I'm running on empty, burning the night

Trying to find my way back to the light

The world keeps on turning, but my heart stands still

If I say I'm doing fine, it's against my will

Yeah, the music stops when the lights fade to blue

I'm just a ghost in this town, living without you

Verse 2

Found your picture in an old desk drawer

Shattered pieces of a lifestyle before

We used to run like wild horses in the wind

Never thinking where the highway would end

Now I'm standing on the edge of the breakdown lane

Trading my pride just to cover the pain

Chorus

'Cause I'm running on empty, burning the night

Trying to find my way back to the light

The world keeps on turning, but my heart stands still

If I say I'm doing fine, it's against my will

Yeah, the music stops when the lights fade to blue

I'm just a ghost in this town, living without you

Guitar Solo

Bridge

They say time heals the deepest of scars

But time hasn't reached where we are

I'd break every rule, I'd cross every line

Just to hear you say that you're mine... one more time!

Chorus

'Cause I'm running on empty, burning the night

Trying to find my way back to the light

The world keeps on turning, but my heart stands still

If I say I'm doing fine, it's against my will

Yeah, the music stops when the lights fade to blue

I'm just a ghost in this town, living without you

Outro

Living without you...

Yeah, the lights fade to blue...

Still holding on.
