AGAINST THE WIND Lyrics

It seems like yesterday, but it was long ago

Janie was lovely, she was the queen of my night

There in the darkness when the radio played low

The secrets that we shared, the mountains that we moved

Caught like a wildfire out of control

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 running against the wind

We were young and strong and we were running against the wind

The years rolled slowly past

And I found myself alone

Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends

And I found myself further and further from my home

And I guess I lost my way

There was oh so many roads

I was living to run and running to live

Never worried about paying or even how much I owed

We went eight miles a minute for months at a time

Breaking all of the rules that we'd been

I began to find myself searching

Searching for shelter again and again

Against the wind

A little something against the wind

I found myself seeking shelter against the wind

Oh, send in the days that pass me now

And I got so much more to think about

Deadlines and commitments

What to leave in, what to leave out

Against the wind

I'm running against the wind

I'm older now and still running against the wind

Well, I'm older now and still running

Against the wind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Still running

Against the wind

I'm still running against the wind

Against the wind

I'm still running

Against the wind

I'm still running against the wind

Against the wind

Still running

Against the wind

Still running against the wind

Against the wind

Still running

Against the wind
