I see it in your eyes You don't want the sunrise to come 'Cause you know I'm on my way You show no emotion Till I'm out on the ocean, and far So far away Tradewinds, cold air I surrender to my mistress, the sea Tradewinds, calling She said, "How long will it be Till she hands you back to me again?" The perfume you're wearing The love we are sharing tonight Just makes me wanna stay And blue lady whispers my name A competing refrain But I've got to go away Tradewinds, cold air I surrender to my mistress, the sea Tradewinds, calling She said, "How long will it be Till she hands you back to me again?" Tradewinds, cold air I surrender to my mistress, the sea Tradewinds, calling She said, "How long will it be Till she hands you back to me again?" Till she hands you back to me again
