Empty Handed by Robben Ford Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Empty handed
Grabbing at the air
Finding nothing there
But my desperation

Carolina missing
Say West Virginia bound
I never heard the sound
Of her frustration

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Pictures framed in an earthquake
Fall to the ground

[Chorus]
When I meet the sunrise
I'll wear it on my shoulder
And nothing will keep me from you

[Verse 2]
This horse is branded
Breaks for parts unknown
Makes his way alone
Taking chances
Carolina gone
With no plans of returning
This memory will be burning
As she once more dances

[Pre-Chorus 2]
There's no starlight on this dark night
And it's cold on the ground

[Chorus]
When I meet the sunrise
I'll wear it on my shoulder
And nothing will keep me from you

When I meet the sunrise
I'll wear it on my shoulder
And nothing will keep me from you
