lyrics

Dust on Dust
(words & music by Nicolette Aubourg © 1998)

We are stars thrown across the earth;
who knows how long we’ll burn this time.
You’ll leave your mark and I’ll leave mine;
who knows how long we will burn this time.

Watch the headlights passing in the night
that fill the falling rain with sparks of light.
A thousand stars of reason break like glass;
a thousand lives in silence quickly pass.

And there is nothing here but dust on dust;
still, I hold you in my heart, - a lovers’ trust.
And I believe in you, believe in you:
the spirit recognizes all things true.

Watch me curl beside you as I sleep;
be the last to feel my heart beat.
Wear the moon’s white face as we embrace;
your presence at the end will be my escape.

And there is nothing here but dust on dust;
still, I hold you in my heart, - a lovers’ trust.
And I believe in you, believe in you:
the spirit recognizes all things true.

I do not come to you for your rescue;
I do not come to you for your knowledge.
I do not ask for more than what we have;
who could ask for more...
