rod stewart - trade winds (early version) lyrics
[verse 1]
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
[chorus]
we’re caught in the trade winds
the trade winds of our time
[verse 2]
here i stand looking, looking around me
while all around me what do i see
young girls who’ll soon become
streetwalkers in the night
young boys, the restless breed
looking for a fight
children both rich and poor
they’re searching for the truth
if they don’t find it
god help tomorrow’s youth
[chorus]
we’re caught in the trade winds
the trade winds of our time
[verse 3]
trade winds are blowing, blowing around me
while all around me what do i see
hatred and jealousy
brotherhood is dying
love is the answer
but n-body’s buying
good people turning bad
some don’t but they are few
the winds are blowing
the choice is all up to you
[chorus]
we’re caught in the trade winds
the trade winds of our time
[outro]
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
