Bilingual
Here I stand looking, looking around me
While all around me, what to do I see
Unhappy faces, behind fine smile
Heartache and loneliness, dressed up in modern style
Unhappy people, living in sin and shame
Reflections of myself, life is no easy game
And we're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of all time
Time
ย
Here I stand looking, looking around me
While all around me, what to do I see
Young girls who soon become streetwalkers in the night
Young boys a restless breed, looking for a fight
Children booth rich and poor
They're searching for the truth
And if they don't find it
God help tomorrow's youth
We're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of all time
Time
ย
Trade winds are blowing, blowing around me
While all around me, what to do I see
Hatred and jealousy, brotherhood is dying
Love is the answer but nobody's buying
Good people are turning back
Some don't but they are few
Wind's are blowing
And the choice is up to you
We're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
Time
