[Verse 1: Waylon Jennings]
It seems like yesterday, but it was long ago
She was lovely, she was the queen of our nights
There in the darkness with the radio playing low
The secrets that we shared, the mountains that we moved
Caught like a wildfire, out of control
There was nothin' left to burn and nothin' left to prove

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

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

[Verse 2: Willie Nelson]
The years rolled slowly past, I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and further from my home
I guess I lost my way, there were oh so many roads
I was livin' to run and runnin' to live
Never worryin' about payin' or how much I owed
