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 am returning it won’t be the same
She traded her name
Way down where the trade winds play

Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan (born Robert Zimmerman May 24, 1941), is an American singer-songwriter, writer, and artist who has influenced popular music and culture for more than five decades. Dylan has especially played a critical role in the American folk music revival.

Dylan’s songs are built from myriad political, social, philosophical and literary influences. Many of his anti-war and civil-rights-influenced songs set social unrest, as journalists widely named him the “spokesman for his generation” in the 1960s.

The musician has a signature change in voice and style in many different albums of his throughout the decades. He has notably explored and experimented with the genres of folk, rap, blues, and rock.
