Empty nights tears on my pillow
lost in a world that's turned to grey
broken dreams shatter like glass
how did it all just slip away
I walk these streets all alone
hoping somehow you'd come back to me
but you're gone and I'm left here
with memories of what it used to be
in the pouring rain
I'll cry out your name
searching for love that's lost in vain
my heart is breaking
but I'll keep on surviving
in this sad pop American song
I'll keep on striving
but I keep on surviving in the self of American sun
I keep on trying
