Lyrics
Empty As A Bottle
(Intro)
Now Im bound for Arizona
And Im down to one headlight
Feelin empty as a bottle and cold
(V1)
There's a picture in the visor
There's a map upon the dash
There's a sun on the horizon
And a wallet full of cash
And the radio is playing
"My City Was Gone"
The road spills out in front of me
And it just goes on and on and on and on
Chorus:
And I tried to keep on travelin'
I tried to stay away
But you're a mystery unravelin'
In the miles along the way
Now I'm bound for Arizona
And I'm down to one headlight
Feelin' empty as a bottle
And cold as the desert tonight
Bridge:
And the road it calls my name
But its' arms don't wrap around me
And it doesn't feel the same
Oh, it's a lonely game
But loneliness
Is what I do best
(V2)
Now I'm countin' mile markers
And lookin' for the moon
The sky is getting darker
And the stars will show up soon
But me, I'll still be drivin'
When the darkness meets the dawn
At the borderline on Mountain Time
Where my heart and I belong
Chorus:
And I tried to keep on travelin'
I tried to stay away
But you're a mystery unravelin'
In the miles along the way
Now I'm bound for Arizona
And I'm down to one headlight
Feelin' empty as a bottle
And cold
Feelin' empty as a bottle
And cold as the desert tonight
