Against The Wind - bob Seger
It 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 playin' low The secrets that we shared Mountains that we moved Caught like wild fire out of control 'Till 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 didnt know now what I didnt 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 Found myself further and further from my home I guess I lost my way There were oh so many roads I was living to run and running to live Never worrying 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 Began to find myself searching Searching for shelter again and again
Against the wind, I was running against the wind I found myself seeking shelter against the wind But those drifters days are past me now I've got so much more to think about Dead lines and commitments What to leave in, what to leave out
Against the wind I'm still running against the wind Well I'm older now but still running Against the wind Against the wind Against the wind.
