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
