Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes
Trying to hold it all together with whiskey and glue
Like we've been on pause too long
Need to find the resume
Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes

When the honeymoon ends, real life moves in

You wake up in the mornin', sometimes it's coffee and gin

Hard to keep it all runnin' smooth

Stuck in that day-to-day groove

Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes



Yeah, livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes

Trying to hold it all together with whiskey and glue

Like we've been on pause too long

Need to find the resume

Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes, yeah



So you keep on poundin', like a hammer to the stone

Yeah, you keep on swingin' till the rock is all gone

You just do the best you can do

And maybe that sky will turn a little blue

Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes



Yeah, we're livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes

Trying to hold it all together with whiskey and glue

Like we've been on pause too long

Need to find the resume

Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes



You both love each other

Lord knows that you do

But you're livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes



Yeah, you're livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes

Trying to hold it all together with whiskey and glue

Like we've been on pause too long

Need to find the resume

Livin' on empty, lovin' on fumes

Yeah, livin' on empty and lovin' on fumes
