Here I stand looking, looking around me
While all around me what do I see
Unhappy faces behind a 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
ย
The trade winds of our time
ย
Here I stand looking, looking around me
While all around me what do I see
(Young girls who'll soon become) young girls who'll soon become
(Streetwalkers in the avenues) streetwalkers in the night
(Young boys of the neighborhood) young boys the restless breed
(Tell me what they gonna see) looking for a fight
(Children who're rich and poor) children both rich and poor
They're searching for the truth
If they don't find it
God help tomorrow's youth
We're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
We're the trade winds (we're the trade winds)
Trade winds of our time
Trade winds are blowing, blowing around me
While all around me what do I see
(Hatred and jealousy) hatred and jealousy
(Brotherhood is dying) 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 they are few
The winds are blowing
The choice is all up to you
We're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
ย
Yes, we're caught up in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
We are riding on the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
Yes, we're caught up in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
We are riding on the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
Yes, we're caught up in the trade...
