Cover art for The Long Run lyrics by Eagles

Whether it\'s about a friend or a lady, it seems like it\'s about love and how "strong" love can withstand some adversity. After all, is it really love if it CAN\'T "handle some resistance"? Whether it\'s keeping a band or a relationship together, there are going to be stubborn personality traits ("do the crazy things that you do") interacting with each other. But if there\'s a foundation of love, commitment to each other, and willingness to "go the distance" by everyone involved, then it can work.
