Shoulda' listened to someone, love has gone, I've got nowhere to run.
|
I shoulda' listened to someone, love has gone, I've got nowhere to run.
|
|
She's gone and I know, that the pain is beginnin' to show, I'm hurting inside.
|
My world fell apart, but love's still burning in my heart, but where can I hide?
|
|
Love turned to stone, and I'm tired of bein' alone,
|
Yeah, burnin' the midnight oil - Yeah, burnin' the midnight oil.
|
|
There's a voice in my head runnin' over everything she said, and I can't erase it.
|
Love was a game, well I lost and it's a cryin' shame, but I gotta face it.
|
|
Nowhere to go, and time is moving slow,
|
Yeah, burnin' the midnight oil - Yeah, burnin'...
|
|
Burnin' the midnight oil - hot water getting ready to boil,
|
Drink coffee 'til my nerves are wired - I'm so high, I think I'll never be tired.
|
Feeling sad and I'm mad, all the bad luck that I've had.

Shoulda' listened to someone, love has gone, I've got nowhere to run.
|
I shoulda' listened to someone, love has gone, I've got nowhere to run.
|
Shoulda' listened to someone, love has gone, I've got nowhere to run.
|
I shoulda' listened to someone, love has gone, I've got nowhere to run.
|
|
I'll lay back on my bed, memories runnin' through my head, I tried to forget.
|
The clock's striking twelve, I'm still trying to convince myself it's not over yet.
|
Love turned to stone, and I'm tired of bein' alone,
|
Yea, burnin' the midnight oil - Yea-ee-yea, burnin' the midnight oil.
