Lyrics
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
And we're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
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 (walkers of the avenue)
Streetwalkers in the night (young boys of the neighborhood)
Young boys, the restless breed (tell me what they're looking for)
Looking for a fight (children who are rich and poor)
Children both 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 our time (the trade winds, trade winds of our time)
Trade winds are blowing, blowing around me
And while all around me, what do I see (hatred and jealousy)
Hatred and jealousy (brotherhood is dying out)
Brotherhood is dying (love is what we really need)
Love is the answer
Nobody's buying
Good people turning bad
Some don't but they are few
The winds are blowing
The choice is up to you
We're caught in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time (ah ah ah)
Yes, we're caught up in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
And we're riding on the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
We're caught up, caught up in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
We are riding, riding on the trade winds
Trade winds of our time
Yes, we're caught up, caught up in the trade winds
The trade winds of our time
And we're riding, riding on the trade winds
Trade winds of our time
We are riding, yes we're riding
Trade winds of our time
And we're caught up, caught up in the trade winds
Trade winds of our time
