Return Into Dust

A-one, two, three, four They said seek and ye shall find All I ever find was this trouble in my mind One of these days I will set myself free Ain't no one else who can put the bite on me But until then I'll do it again They said seek and ye shall know All I ever saw was a heaven here below, or so it goes The time meant for us like the rose We will return into dust They said sow and ye shall reap All I ever saw was this dream that I can't keep One little wheat field yields a little grain Rough times, tough times are all one and the same But as for now, time don't allow They said search and destroy All that you hold dear Like the laughter you keep hearing through the years The time meant for us, all our fears Will return into dust They said ask and it shall be And all I can tell you is, baby, it ain't free One more request and then I'll be on my way I've paid the price, love, start a brand new day But until then, let us be friends They said drink and be restored All I ever drank Made me wind up on the floor and what is more A mind turned to rust, that's for sure We will return into dust Through the years A time meant for us, all our fears Will return into dust --- Return Into Dust - Gordon Lightfoot
