“Dust in the Wind” by Kansas

Dust In The Wind lyrics

I close my eyes
Only for a moment and the moment’s gone
All my dreams
Pass before my eyes a curiosity

Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song
Just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do
Crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Now don’t hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the Earth and Sky
It slips away
And all your money won’t another minute buy

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind

 

Heard this on the radio today and though– how true.  In 100 years how many people will be remembered?  How many people’s names will even be recognized.  As significant as we may think we are, in the greater scope of life we are but an insignificant speck.
