I find myself alone again
And watch the window
running rain
A peaceful place where
people smile
And share their lives just for a while
The day grows cold, my feelings too
In thoughts of us, but mainly you
What did it come to, all this trust?
Precious metals turned to rust
We are dust, we are dust
Just lonely little satellites
All that we were made to be
We've fallen, seen and died
Dust, we are dust
Dust of gold and silver bright
Caught for a second in a shaft of light
As if we've never been
The weary,
faceless people walking by
All the lonely and the down at heart
No point to worry what to
morrow brings
We're all nothing in
the scheme of things
Crying faces standing round
Dressed in black and placing flowers
What is the point of all this love?
Of all these hours?
We are dust, we are dust
Just floating through the atmosphere
Like spirits from another time
We're never really here
Dust, we are dust
Blown upon a gentle breeze
Washed away from
morrow's rain
We'll never have this time again
So I sit counting down the hours
Watching shoots as they
emerge as flowers
Nothing lasts till the end
of time
Nothing's yours, nothing's mine
Our dreams are taken with the clouds
Through the ever- changing skies
Birds going autumn, back in spring
And for a while you made
my heart sing
Dust
Dust, we are dust
Dust of gold and silver bright
Caught for a second
in a shaft of light
We've never really been
