Trade Winds

Down where the trade winds play, down where you lose the day

We found a new world where paradise starts

We traded hearts way down where the trade winds play

Music was everywhere, flowers were in her hair

Under an awning of silvery boughs

We traded vows the night that I sailed away

Oh, trade winds, what are vows that lovers make?

Oh, trade winds, are they only made to break?

When it is May again, I'll sail away again

Though I'm returning, it won't be the same

She traded her name way down where the trade winds play

Blow trade winds, blow away
