Against The Wind
[Waylon Jennings]
It seems like yesterday
But it was long ago
She was lovely
She was the queen of my 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
Till there was nothing left to burn
And nothing left to prove
[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
Against the wind
We were running against the wind
We were young and strong
We just were running against the wind
[Willie Nelson]
And the years rolled slowly past
And I found myself alone
Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends
I found myself further and futher 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 ever how much I owned
Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
I began to find myself searching
Searching for shelter again and again
Against the wind
We were running against the wind
I found myself seeking shelter against the wind
[Willie Nelson]
Oh, those drifter days are past me now
I've got so much more to think about
[Johnny Cash]
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out
Against the wind
We were running against the wind
We found ourselfs seeking shelter against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
Contra o Vento
[Waylon Jennings]
Parece que foi ontem
Mas foi há muito tempo
Ela era linda
Era a rainha das minhas noites
Ali na escuridão com o rádio, tocando baixo
Os segredos que compartilhamos
As montanhas que movemos
Pegos como um incêndio fora de controle
Até não sobrar nada pra queimar
E nada pra provar
[Johnny Cash]
E eu lembro do que ela me disse
Como ela jurou que nunca ia acabar
Lembro como ela me segurava, tão apertado
Queria não saber agora, o que não sabia então
Contra o vento
Estávamos correndo contra o vento
Éramos jovens e fortes
Só estávamos correndo contra o vento
[Willie Nelson]
E os anos passaram devagar
E me vi sozinho
Cercado por estranhos que achava que eram meus amigos
Me afastei cada vez mais da minha casa
E acho que perdi meu caminho
Havia tantas estradas
Eu vivia pra correr e corria pra viver
Nunca me preocupei em pagar ou quanto eu possuía
Movendo oito milhas por minuto por meses a fio
Quebrando todas as regras que podiam ser dobradas
Comecei a me encontrar buscando
Buscando abrigo de novo e de novo
Contra o vento
Estávamos correndo contra o vento
Me vi buscando abrigo contra o vento
[Willie Nelson]
Oh, aqueles dias de andarilho já ficaram pra trás
Tenho muito mais com o que me preocupar
[Johnny Cash]
Prazos e compromissos
O que deixar de fora, o que deixar entrar
Contra o vento
Estávamos correndo contra o vento
Nos encontramos buscando abrigo contra o vento
Contra o vento
Contra o vento
