shoulda´ listened to someone, love has gone, i´ve got nowhere to run.
i shoulda´ listened to someone, love has gone, i´ve got nowhere to run.

she´s gone and i know, that the pain is beginnin´ to show, i´m hurting inside.
my world fell apart, but love´s still burning in my heart, but where can i hide?

love turned to stone, and i´m tired of bein´ alone,
yeah, burnin´ the midnight oil - yeah, burnin´ the midnight oil.

there´s a voice in my head runnin´ over everything she said, and i can´t erase it.
love was a game, well i lost and it´s a cryin´ shame, but i gotta face it.

nowhere to go, and time is moving slow,
yeah, burnin´ the midnight oil - yeah, burnin´...

burnin´ the midnight oil - hot water getting ready to boil,
drink coffee ´til my nerves are wired - i´m so high, i think i´ll never be tired.
feeling sad and i´m mad, all the bad luck that i´ve had.

i shoulda´ listened to someone, love has gone, i´ve got nowhere to run.
shoulda´ listened to someone, love has gone, i´ve got nowhere to run.
i shoulda´ listened to someone, love has gone, i´ve got nowhere to run.

i´ll lay back on my bed, memories runnin´ through my head, i tried to forget.
the clock´s striking twelve, i´m still trying to convince myself it´s not over yet.
love turned to stone, and i´m tired of bein´ alone,
yea, burnin´ the midnight oil - yea-ee-yea, burnin´ the midnight oil.
