Lyrics

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
