I found myself alone again
I watched the window running grey
And share their lives just for a while
The day grows cold, my feelings too
And thoughts of us, but mainly you
Why did it come to all this trust?
Precious metals turn to rust
And just lonely little satellites
All that we are meant to be
dust of gold and silver light
Caught for a second in a shaft of light
Oh, the lonely and the down at heart
No point to worry what tomor
Cry ing faces standing round
Dressed in black and placing flowers
What is the point of all this love?
Oh, we are dust, we are dust
Like spirits from another time
Blown upon a gentle breeze
Washed away tomorrow's rain
We'll never have this time again
Nothing lasts till the end of time
Nothing's yours, nothing's mine
Through the ever -changing skies
Birds come in autumn, back in spring
And for a while you made my heart sing
Dust of gold and silver bright
Caught for a second in a shaft of light
