Trade Winds |
Here I stand looking |
Looking all around me |
While all around me (What do I see?) |
What do I see? |
Unhappy faces behind the painted smile |
Heartache and loneliness dressed up in modern style |
Unhappy people living in sin and shame |
Reflections of myself, life is no easy game |
We’re caught in the trade winds (trade winds) |
The trade winds of our time |
Here I stand looking |
Looking all around me |
While all around me (What do I see?) |
What do I see? |
(Young girls who would soon become) Young girls would soon become |
(Walkers of anatomy) Streetwalkers in the night |
(Young boys of the neighborhood) Young boys, the restless breed |
(Tell me what they’re gonna do) And they’re looking for a fight |
(Children who both rich and poor) Children both rich and poor |
(Tell me what they’re searching for) They’re searching for the truth |
Ad if they don’t find it, God help tomorrow’s youth |
We’re caught in the trade winds (trade winds) |
Ooh, the trade winds of our time |
The trade winds are blowing |
Blowing all around me |
While all around me (What do I see?) |
What do I see? |
(Hatredness and jealousy) |
Hatred and jealousy, brotherhood is dying |
(Love is what we really need) |
Love is the answer, but nobody’s buying |
Good people turning bad |
Some don’t, but there are few |
The trade winds are blowing, the choice is up to you |
We’re caught in the trade winds (trade winds) |
Ooh, the trade winds of our time, ooh yes |
Yes, we’re caught up in the trade winds |
Ooh, trade winds of our time, oh yeah |
We’re caught up, we’re caught up in the trade winds |
Yeah, yeah, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, yeah-eah-eah-eah |
Ohhhh, yeah, yeah, oh yeah |
We’re caught up in the trade winds, trade winds |
Trade winds of our time |
We’re caught up, we’re caught up in the trade winds |
