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 wildfire 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 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.
 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 worrying  about paying, or even how much I owed.
 Runnin' 8  miles a minute  for months at a time,
 breaking all  of the rules  that would bend.
 I begin  to find  myself just 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 drifter's 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 but still running  against  the wind.
 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 running)
 Against the wind  (he ll be running against the wind)
 Against the wind  (let the cowboys ride)
 Against the wind  (ohhhhh)
 Against the wind  (let the cowboys ride)
 Against the wind  (they ll be riding against the wind)
 Against the wind  (against the wind)
 Against the wind  (riding against the wind)
 Against the wind
