I'll go down swinging

Rolling fields remind me
of the distance I feel
staring out at the darkness
trying to be real
left cold shoulders behind me
round and round go the wheels  
putting miles between us
seems so unreal
 
But I'll go down swinging
for my friends
make my mark and stand
I'll go down swinging
believe me
you don't want
to be where I've been
 
As I look around me
am I a lucky man
friends stand beside me
always seem to understand
as the headlights search out
shadows to the right, to the left
straight white lines deceive you
lines and horizon start to blend
 
But I'll go down swinging  
for my friends
make my mark and stand
I'll go down swinging  
believe me
you don't want  
to be where I've been
 
Seems I've come full circle
beat myself once again
stronger when we're together
than alone against the wind
how we let something divide us
robs me of my words
standing now beside you
I feel whole again
 
But I'll go down swinging
for you friend
take you by the hand
I'll go down swinging
believe me
you don't want
to be where I've been
