There are some who can still remember
All the things that we used to do
But the days of our youth were numbered
And the ones who survive it are few

Oh
I can still see the smiley faces
When the times were so good
All the old familiar places

I'd go back if I could
To the people
Of the south wind
To the people
Of the southern wind
To the people
Of the south wind
To the people
Of the southern wind

Well, it's a hard thing to face the music
But it's somethin' everybody's got to do
So I hope that I can always remember
All the crazy times we had to go through

Now
It's a dream that is slowly fading
And I don't want it to go
All of the memories
Are evading
And I
Want you to know

It's the people
Of the south wind
It's the people
Of the southern wind
It's the people
Of the south wind
It's the people
Of the southern wind

Now we've traveled all across the oceans
And we've seen what there is to see
But I guess it's not the proper solution
'Cause it's all about the same to me

Now
I look back and it makes me wonder
Why we just couldn't see
All of the battles
We fought and won there
And I wish that I could be
With the people
Of the south wind
With the people
Of the southern wind
It's the people
Of the south wind
You're the people
Of the southern wind
It's the people
Of the south wind
It's the people
Of the southern wind
It's the people
Of the south wind
It's the people
Of the southern wind
It's the people
Of the south wind
