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?
