 Born to Run (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Born to Run" is the signature song of the American singer songwriter Bruce Springsteen.
Written in the first person, the song is a love letter to a girl named Wendy (I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight/in an everlasting kiss), whom the bike-riding protagonist certainly has the passion to love, but may not have the patience.
The song was also recorded with only Springsteen and Mike Appel as producers; it would be later, when work on the album bogged down, that Jon Landau was brought in as an additional producer.
