Driving in a fast lane 00:04
Counting mile marker signs 00:08
The empty seat beside me 00:12
Keeps you on my mind 00:16
Living in a heartache 00:21
Was never something I pursued 00:24
I can keep on chasing 00:28
What I can be for you 00:32
Ooh, skies are black and blue 00:37
I'm thinking about you 00:43
Here in the calm after the storm 00:48
Tears on a highway 00:53
Water in my eyes 00:57
This rain ain't gonna change us 01:01

I just wanna know if staying 01:18
Is better than goodbye 01:22

Maybe I can find you 02:17
Down this broken line 02:20
Maybe you can find me 02:24
I guess we'll know in time 02:28

Lyrics:

[English]

Driving in a fast lane

Counting mile marker signs

The empty seat beside me

Keeps you on my mind

Living in a heartache

Was never something I pursued

I can keep on chasing

What I can be for you

Ooh, skies are black and blue

I'm thinking about you

Here in the calm after the storm

Tears on a highway

Water in my eyes

This rain ain't gonna change us

So what's the use in cryin'

I could say I'm sorry

But I don't wanna lie

I just wanna know if staying

Is better than goodbye

Ooh, skies are black and blue

I'm thinking about you

Here in the calm after the storm

Ooh, after all that we've been through

There ain't nothin' new

Here in the calm after the storm

Maybe I can find you

Down this broken line

Maybe you can find me

I guess we'll know in time

Ooh, skies are black and blue

I'm thinking about you

Here in the calm after the storm

There ain't nothing new

Here in the calm after the storm
