Against The Wind

Seems like yesterday

But it was long ago

Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights

There in the darkness with the radio playing low

And the secrets that we shared

Mountains that we moved

Caught like a wildfire out of control

'Til there was nothing left to burn

And nothing left to prove

And I remember what she said to me

How she swore that it never would end

I remember how she held me, oh so tight

Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the wind

We were runnin' against the wind

We were young and strong, we were runnin'

Against the wind

And the years rolled slowly past

And I found myself alone

Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends

Found myself further and further from my home and I

Guess I lost my way

There were oh so many roads

I was living to run and running to live

Never worried about paying, or even how much I owed

Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time

Breaking all of the rules that would bend

I began to find myself searching

Searching for shelter again and again

Against the wind

Little something against the wind

I found myself seeking shelter

Against the wind

Well those drifter's days are past me now

I've got so much more to think about

Deadlines and commitments

What to leave in, what to leave out

Against the wind

I'm still runnin' against the wind

I'm older now but still runnin'

Against the wind

Well I'm older now and still runnin'

Against the wind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Still runnin'

(Against the wind)

I'm still runnin' against the wind

(Against the wind)

I'm still runnin'

(Against the wind)

I'm still runnin' against the wind

(Against the wind)

Still runnin'

(Against the wind)

Runnin' against the wind

(Against the wind)

See the young man run

(Against the wind)

Watch the young man run

(Against the wind)

Watch the young man runnin'

(Against the wind)

He'll be runnin' against the wind

(Against the wind)

Let the cowboys ride

(Against the wind)

(Against the wind)

Let the cowboys ride

(Against the wind)

They'll be ridin' against the wind

(Against the wind)

Against the wind

(Against the wind)

Ridin' against the wind

(Against the wind)

(Against the wind)
