The Empty Seat Beside Me Songtext
von Chris Wall

Don′t want to ride that lonesome highway anymore
Don't want to live so wild and free

I ride along with an empty seat beside me
A country song is playing on the radio
Station′s fading out, Lord knows I know the feeling
A different road but it's the same old rodeo

Late Sunday night and the radio is lousy
Lots of static and fanatics on the dial
These tired eyes they must be getting drowsy
Headlight's glaring I could swear I saw you smile


Don′t want to ride that lonesome highway anymore
Don′t want to live so wild and free
Won't you please fill this space inside me
And take your place in that empty seat beside me

Side of the road
A drive-in movie tonight shows memories of you
Radio′s off but I'm still pushing buttons
I′ve just got to change these thoughts or I won't last
Crazy idea ′bout the windshield and the mirror
Meaning's clear
One's the future one′s the past

Don′t want to ride this lonesome highway anymore...
