Trade Winds 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 STREETWALKERS IN THE NIGHT
YOUNG BOYS, THE RESTLESS BREED LOOKING FOR A FIGHT
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
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 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

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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Roberta Flack (b. 1937) is a U.S. singer and pianist.

Born on 10th February 1937 in Asheville, North Carolina, Flack performs in the areas of jazz, soul, and folk, and is best known for singles such as "Killing Me Softly with His Song", which won the 1974 Grammy for Record of the Year, and "Where Is the Love", which was one of her many duets with Donny Hathaway.

Flack began her professional career recording for Atlantic Records without much success, until one of her earliest recordings, "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" (1969), was included on the soundtrack to Clint Eastwood's directorial debut Play Misty for Me; it became a number-one hit in 1972.
