Against The Wind Lyrics By Bob Seger

    seems like yesterday
    but it was long ago
    janey was lovely she was the queen of my nights
    there in darkness with the radio playin’ low

    and the secrets that we shared
    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 wind
    we were running against the wind
    we were young and strong
    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 and i

    guess i lost my way
    there were oh so many roads
    i was livin’ to run and running to live
    never worried about payin’ or even how much i owe

    movin’ eight miles a minute for months at a time
    breakin’ all of the rules that would bend
    i began to find myself searchin’
    searchin’ for shelter again and again

    against the wind
    little somethin’ against the wind
    i found myself seekin’ 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 against the wind
    i’m older now but still running against the wind
    well i’m older now and still running
    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 runnin’
    against the wind
    he’ll be runnin’ against the wind
    against the wind
    let the cowboys ride
    against the wind
    mm
    against the wind
    let the cowboys ride
    against the wind
    they’ll be ridin’ against the wind
    against the wind
    against the wind
    against the wind
    ridin’ against the wind
    against the wind
    against the wind
