Hank Snow - Down Where The Trade Winds Blow Lyrics

Written and arranged by Hank Snow



Down where the trade winds play

Down where they lose the day

We found a new world

Where Paradise starts we traded hearts

The night that I sailed away



Flowers were in her hair

Music was everywhere

Under an awning of silvery boughs we traded vows

The night that I sailed away



Trade winds, what are vows that lovers made

Trade winds, are they only made to break



When it is May again

I'll sail away again

Though I am returning it won't be the same

She traded her name

Way down where the trade winds play



Trade winds, what are vows that lovers made

Trade winds, are they only made to break



When it is May again

I'll sail away again

Though I am returning it won't be the same

She traded her name

Way down where the trade winds play
