Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Driving in the fast lane
Counting mile marker signs
The empty seat beside me
Keeps you on my mind
[Verse 2]
Living in a heartache
Was never something I pursued
I can't keep on chasing
What I can't be for you
[Verse 3]
Ooh, skies are black and blue
I'm thinking about you
Here in the calm after the storm
[Verse 4]
Tears on the highway
Water in my eyes
This rain ain't gonna change us
So what's the use to cry?
[Verse 5]
I could say I'm sorry
But I don't wanna lie
I just wanna know if staying
Is better than goodbye
[Verse 6]
Ooh, skies are black and blue
I'm thinking about you
Here in the calm after the storm
[Verse 7]
Ooh, after all that we've been through
There ain't nothing new
Here in the calm after the storm
[Verse 8]
Maybe I can find you
Down this broken line
Maybe you can find me
I guess we'll know in time
[Verse 9]
Ooh, skies are black and blue
I'm thinking about you
Here in the calm after the storm
[Verse 10]
Ooh, after all that we've been through
There ain't nothing new
Here in the calm after the storm
There ain't nothing new
Here in the calm after the storm
