Tradewinds Lyrics
my heavens low but the songs the same
seems I'm always looking when I hear your name
you've been away but don't leave this side
seen all of your faces you've tried to hide
so I'm sitting here in a train station
traveling to an unknown destination
oh I always seem to try
still I'm one still I'm one to testify and I say
;chorus;
I'll find a way to let you know
hold me close when tradewinds blow
chances are you're over me, I'll catch that train eventually
to the questions that you're asking
I've only expected everything
these arms of mine are burning
as I see, as I see the pages turning
;chorus;
seems I'm always looking when I hear your name
you've been away but don't leave this side
seen all of your faces you've tried to hide
so I'm sitting here in a train station
traveling to an unknown destination
oh I always seem to try
still I'm one still I'm one to testify and I say
;chorus;
I'll find a way to let you know
hold me close when tradewinds blow
chances are you're over me, I'll catch that train eventually
I've only expected everything
these arms of mine are burning
as I see, as I see the pages turning

i think this song is about a guy who is still in love with a girl but she's not coming back and he's just starting to realize this as each day goes by and soon enough it'll hit him and he'll start to move on..it's so sad, i hate when that happens!

This song is very reminiscent of Bring Me Your Cup by UB40. Still a wonderful song
You know, I heard a little ode to Bring Me Your Cup in their song Drunk Girl too. :-D

I think the trainstation represents his uncertainty about the future...how he should pursue her...
"Hold me close when tradewinds blow"
if you know any of pepper's background you would know they are originally from kaliua-kona, hawaii ..i believe this song is about two people who were together and then seperated and one of them went back to the mainland.. and the tradewinds blow from the mainland to hawaii.. possibly there is a memory that they shared conserning the tradewinds.. and the "train" could symbolize him finally going to the mainland to be with her
