Against the wind

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 playing low, and

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

Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then

Against the wend

We were runnin' against the wend

We were young and strong, we were runnin' against the wend

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 wend

A little something against the wend

I found myself seeking shelter against the wend

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 wend

I'm still runnin' against the wend

I'm older now but still runnin' against the wend

Well I'm older now and still runnin'

Against the wend

Against the wend

Against the wend

Still runnin' (against the wend)

I'm still runnin' against the wend

(Against the wend) I'm still runnin'

(Against the wend)

I'm still runnin' against the wend

(Against the wend) still runnin'

(Against the wend)runnin' against the wend, runnin' against the wind

(Against the wend) see the young man run

(Against the wend) watch the young man run

(Against the wend) watch the young man runnin'

(Against the wend) he'll be runnin' against the wend

(Against the wend) let the cowboys ride

(Against the wend) aah

(Against the wend) let the cowboys ride

(Against the wend) they'll be ridin' against the wend

(Against the wend) against the wend

(Against the wend) ridin' against the wend..
