Against The Wind

It seems like yesterday
But it was long ago
Jenny was lovely, she was the queen of my nights
There in the darkness with the radio playing low
And 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

I remember what she said to me
How she swore that it would never end
I remember how she held me so tight
Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the wind
We were runnin' against the wind
We were young and strong and 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 living to run and running to live
Never worried 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
I began to find myself searching
Searching for shelter again and again

Against the wind
A little something against the wind
Well, I found myself seeking shelter against the wind

Well, those treacherous 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
Well, I'm older now and still running against the wind

I'm older now and still running against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
I'm still running
Against the wind
Still running against the wind
Against the wind
Let the cowboy runnin'
Against the wind
Still running against the wind
Against the wind

No, I'm running
Against the wind
Still running against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
I'm still running
Against the wind
