Against the Wind
Not a dime to spare.
Life was tough while we were young, and we had believed it would be getting better as time goes on. However, we are disappointed to find life tougher and harsher when we grow up - wish we didn't know now what we didn't know then - and we somethimes yearn to be back to those days of "not a dime to spare".
Tired of hearing RAP, R&B, and Hip-Hop? Try this one. Against the Windis a song composed and written by Bob Seger from the album of the same name originally issued in 1980. (What did you do and where were you then?) It's just something more than vintage rock'n roll, it's...mmm, my dear friend, you'll know what I mean if you fight the tears sentimentally as the music plays.
Against The Wind
Words and music by Bob Seger
(Lyrics)
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 I'm older now and still running
Against the wind

Yeah~~crazy guy was dead~~I don't know how to say it, but did he has talent?Barrett's decline had a profound effect on Roger Waters' song-writing, and the theme of mental illness would permeate Pink Floyd's later albums, particularly 1973's Dark Side of the Moon and 1979's The Wall.
