Against the Wind

[Verse 1]

Seems like yesterday

But it was long ago

Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights

There in darkness with the radio playin' low, and

The secrets that we shared

Mountains that we moved

Caught like a wildfire out of control

'Til there was nothin' left to burn and nothin' left to prove

[Pre-Chorus]

I remember what she said to me

How she swore that it never would end

Remember how she held me, oh, so tight

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

[Chorus]

Against the wind

We were runnin' against the wind

We were young and strong

We were runnin' against the wind

[Verse 2]

The years rolled slowly past

Found myself alone

Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends

Found myself further and further from my home, and I

I guess I lost my way

There were oh so many roads

I was livin' to run and runnin' to live

Never worried about payin' or even how much I owe

[Pre-Chorus]

Movin' eight miles a minute for months at a time

Breakin' all of the rules that would bend

Began to find myself searchin'

Searchin' for shelter again and again

[Chorus]

Against the wind

A little somethin' against the wind

I found myself seekin' shelter

Against the wind

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]

Well, those drifters 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

[Chorus]

Against the wind

I'm still runnin' against the wind

I'm older now but still runnin'

Against the wind

[Outro]

I'm much older now and still runnin'

Against the wind

Against the wind

I'm still runnin' against the wind

Against the wind

Still runnin'

Against the wind

I'm still runnin' against the wind

Against the wind

See the young man runnin'

Against the wind

Watch the young man run

Against the wind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Let the cowboys ride

Against the wind

Against the wind

Let the cowboys ride

Against the wind
