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

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

This is a cover of a song by the band “Kansas”, written by his member Kerry Livgren. Released on the 4th live album “Acoustica”. In the orginal, the song was performed only with an acoustic guitar and a violin, which is why the composition was quite gloomy and depressing, but the Scorpions used different instruments at the concert, thanks to which the cover turned out to be soothing and positive, giving light emotions
