Paul Anka - Against the Wind lyrics

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 playlng low
And the secrets that we shared
The mountains that we moved
Caught like a 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 runnin' 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 bv stranners 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 searchin'
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 runnin' against the wind
Well I'm older now and still
Against the wind
