Paul Anka lyrics : "Against The Wind"

[Originally by Bob Seger]

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
