[Verse 1]
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 playin' low
And the secrets that we shared
The mountains that we moved
Caught like a wildfire out of control
’Til there was nothin' left to burn and nothin' left to prove

[Pre-Chorus]
And I remember what she said to me
How she swore that it never would end
I remember how she held mе, oh, so tight
Wish I didn’t know now what I didn't know then

[Chorus]
Against the wind
We wеre runnin' against the wind
We were young and strong
We were runnin' against the wind

[Verse 2]
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 livin' to run and runnin' to live
Never worried about payin' or how much I owed

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Against the wind
A little somethin’ against the wind
I found myself
Seeking shelter against the wind

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
Against the wind
I'm still runnin’ against the wind
I'm older now
But I'm still runnin' against the wind
Well, I'm older now and I'm still runnin'
Against the wind

[Outro]
(I'm runnin' against the wind)
Against the wind (Still runnin')
Against the wind (I'm still runnin' against the wind)
Against the wind (Oh)
