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 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 We were running against the wind
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 livin' to run and running to live Never worried about payin' or even how much I owe
Movin' eight miles a minute for months at a time Breakin' all of the rules that would bend I began to find myself searchin' Searchin' for shelter again and again
Against the wind Little somethin' against the wind I found myself seekin' shelter against the wind
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
Against the wind I'm still running against the wind I'm older now but 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 Running against the wind, running 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 runin' Against the wind He'll be runnin' against the wind Against the wind Let the cowboys ride Against the wind Mm 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
