Living in a danger zone A lonely man, a lonely child So many miles from home Emotions running wild with me Come take my heart Come feel the burns of fire Come and break my heart And feel my loving mind, oh Against the wind I'm flying Against the wind I'm crying This night was made for a lonely Don't break my heart tonight, oh no Against the wind I'm flying Against the wind I'm crying This night was made for a lonely Don't break my heart tonight, oh no Oh, you need a helping hand The times are getting tough Baby, come and try again There's no living without love in my heart Well, it's hard for me But it's harder to ignore it Oh, my fantasy Come feel my love tonight, yeah Against the wind I'm flying Against the wind I'm crying This night was made for the lonely Don't break my heart tonight, oh no Against the wind I'm flying Against the wind I'm crying This night was made for a lonely Don't break my heart tonight Don't break my heart tonight Oh no

It seemed like yesterday But it was so long ago, long ago Jimmy was lovely, was the king of my nights And the darkness with the radio, playin' low The secrets that we shared, the mountains that we moved Caught like wildfire Against the wind We were running against the wind We were running against the wind The years roll by, I found myself alone Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends It took all I own Found myself running from my home Guess I lost my way Oh, there were so many roads I was livin' to run and running to live Against the wind Against the wind We were young and strong And always on the run Against the wind Movin' eight miles a minute, four months at a time Breakin' all the rules that would bend I found myself searching for shelter again Against the wind Against the wind And we were running again and again And we're young and strong I'm a little older now, but I'm still running Against the wind Against the wind Against the wind We're young and strong Again, against the wind

Day after Day seems like I push against the clouds They just keep blocking out the sun It seems since I was born I've wakened every blessed morning Down on my luck and up against the wind Don't you stop, don't you run, don't you cry You'll do fine, you'll be good, you'll get by Night after night seems like I rage against the moon But it don't ever light the dark I curse the falling rain But it won't stop for my complaining Down on my luck and up against the wind Don't you stop, don't you run, don't you cry You'll do fine, you'll be good, you'll get by Swimming against the tide and striking the indifferent air I'm swinging with empty hands Driving that empty dream Mmmm Day after Day I fend myself against heat But it don't ever cool the breeze Don't you stop, don't you run, don't you cry

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
