Driving in the fast lane Counting mile marker signs The empty seat beside me Keeps you on my mind Livin' in the heartache Was never something I pursued I can't keep on chasing What I can't be for you Ooh skies are black and blue I'm thinking about you Here in the calm after the storm Tears on the highway Water in my eyes This rain ain't gonna change us So what's the use to cry? 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 nothing new Here in the calm after the storm Maybe I can find you Down this broken line Maybe you can find me 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
