Against the Wind

Seems like yesterday, but it was long ago
Janie was lovely, she was the queen of my nights
There in the darkness with the radio playin' low and
The secrets that she shared, the mountains that we moved
Caught like a wildfire out of control
Till there was nothin' left to burn, nothin' 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, 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

The years rolled slowly past, and I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I 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 runnin' to live
Never worryin' about payin' or even how much I owed

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 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
Still runnin'
I'm still runnin' against the wind
Still runnin'
Runnin' against the wind, runnin' against the wind
Let the cowboys ride, let the cowboys ride
They'll be ridin' against the wind
Against the wind

Ridin' against the wind
Against the wind

Ride, ride, ride, ride
Still runnin'
Let the cowboys ride
Still runnin'
Still runnin' against the wind
