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 didnt know now what I didnt 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
Ive got so much more to think about
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out
Against the wind
Im still runnin against the wind
Well Im older now and still
Against the wind
Apologies to Bobby and to y'all for interrupting your train of
thought.
Regards,
Tom Watson

"Lightning" might win the Mackinac race again this year... if she's
running.
She won last year "against the wind."
To launch the party...music is on at 11:45 PM (SAT) with an 80's set
under the Bluewater bridge.

Keep playin' that old time rock and roll!
It'd be interesting to hear some very familiar songs
read by the person who sings them -without the
drums and bass and guitar. This one takes on a whole
new meaning without The Silver Bullet Band playing.
I remind my young friends that are racing through
life - that the finish line is death. Some slow down
just a bit to smell the roses. Others are hell bent
and one or two reached their goal - unintentionally.
Thanks for the lyrics Tom.

That'd probably sound great set to music.
