Running on Empty

I hold you gently
While you destroy me
Running on empty
I love you anyway

Don't mean to smother
Through stifling summers
Role of a mother
To love you anyway

Spin round the sun
As you fall one by one
When the last child is gone
I'll miss you

New age is dawning
With plenty of warning
Ready for mourning
I love you anyway

Spin round the sun
As you fall one by one
When the last child is gone
I'll miss you

I will survive, the new era
Bury your bones in the hills
Nothing to fear, I forgive you
Nothing to fear

Spin round the sun
As you fall one by one
When the last child is gone
I'll miss you
When the last child is gone
I'll miss you

I hold you gently
While you destroy me
Running on empty
I love you
