Dust
Windows have been broken
Words have been spoken
Bad news has come and gone
Keeping up with all the ups and downs
And doing our best to keep keeping on
Putting up the lights when winter comes
Then take them down when the heat sets in
Only when the wind blows this way
I remember all them old questions
Like did the dust take him with it
When it blew
This way?
Did it feel him suffer?
Did it feel his pain?
When the winds were howling
Did they call
His name?
Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
Well little sister's got her own baby now
She's growing up in the best way how
And baby teeth are going to come and go
Just like the people that she'll never know
And mama's writing down her memories
Before they drift off to the breeze
And daddy still sings the same old songs but
They've all been wondering since the boy's been gone
Did the dust take him with it
When it blew
This way?
Did it feel him suffer?
Did it feel his pain?
When the winds were howling
Did they call
His name?
Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
Well once you're gone you're gone, I'm told
I've been making a habit out of growing old
But when my time, and my time will come
I'm hoping all them questions will be gone
Like did the dust take him with it
When it blew
This way?
Did it feel him suffer?
Did it feel his pain?
When the winds were howling
Did they call
His name?
Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
Did the dust take him with it
When it blew
This way?
Did it feel him suffer?
Did it feel his pain?
When the winds were howling
Did they call
His name?
Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
Words have been spoken
Bad news has come and gone
Keeping up with all the ups and downs
And doing our best to keep keeping on
Putting up the lights when winter comes
Then take them down when the heat sets in
Only when the wind blows this way
I remember all them old questions
Like did the dust take him with it
When it blew
This way?
Did it feel him suffer?
Did it feel his pain?
When the winds were howling
Did they call

Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
Well little sister's got her own baby now

And baby teeth are going to come and go

Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
Did the dust take him with it
When it blew
This way?
Did it feel him suffer?
Did it feel his pain?
When the winds were howling
Did they call
His name?
Did the dust take him with it?
Is he here today?
