It seems like yesturday
But it was long ago
Janey 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

'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
I 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 runnin'
Against the wind

And 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 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
I found myself seeking 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 agianst the wind
Well I'm older now and still runnin'
Against the wind
