Riding Against The Wind

Snowy night I'm heading home

An airport bar, there you sat all alone

I said, "hello, How've you been?"

"God girl, it's sure good to see you again"

Remember of Panama City

You were fall down drunk

but you still looked pretty

We made love all night

On the beach that September

Told my friends it was great

but you still can't remember

Well...

That was then

This is now

Lookin back i wouldn't change it anyhow

This is now

That was then

Life rolls on

We're still riding against the wind

As for me

My life's been up and down

Playing night to night

Moving town to town

You said you had a daughter, I've got two of my own

They're the love of my life

They sure helped me grow up

I've seen a few things, Played for the troops of Iraq

I've made a few friends who didn't make it back

Yea I danced with the devil and

cried with the saints

I broke all the rules

so it's wasn't all in vain

That was then

This is now

Lookin back i wouldn't change it anyhow

This is now

That was then

Life rolls on

We're still riding against the wind

Somedays I'm smiling

Somedays I'm sad

Somedays I still wake up fighting mad

Yea there's a part of me that wants to go back

Then I remember I'm good right where I'm at

It's getting late baby so let's raise a glass

One to the future

and one to the past

Those photographs

Pictures of

The friends we lost

and here's to the ones we love

That was then

This is now

Lookin back I wouldn't change it anyhow

This is now

That was then

Life rolls on

We're still riding against the wind

It's all right

It's okay

Yesterday's gone

I'm living for today

It's ok

It's all right

Somehow we all made it through the night

Life rolls on baby!

and it's rolling,

We're still riding against the wind

It's all right

It's ok

I wouldn't change it anyway
