Cat Power - Against the Wind lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] And the secrets that we shared, the mountains that we moved Caught like a wildfire out of control 'Til there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove [Pre-Chorus 1] 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 [Chorus 1] Against the wind We were running against the wind We were young and strong We were running against the wind [Verse 3] And 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 [Verse 4] 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 even how much I owe [Pre-Chorus 2] 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 2] Against the wind Little somethin' against the wind I found myself seekin' shelter against the wind [Pre-Chorus 3] 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 [Chorus 3] Against the wind I'm still running against the wind I'm older now but still running against the wind [Outro] Well, I'm older now and still running Against the wind (Against the wind) (Against the wind) I'm 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) Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride (Against the wind) (Against the wind)
