Dust To Dust lyrics

It’s not your eyes

It’s not what you say

It’s not your laughter

That gives you away

You’re just lonely

You’ve been lonely too long

All your acting

Your thin disguise

All your perfectly-delivered lines

They don’t fool me

You’ve been lonely too long

Let me in the walls

You’ve built around

We can light a match

And burn them down

Let me hold your hand and dance ’round and ’round the flames

In front of us

Dust to dust

You’ve held your head up

You fought the fight

You bear the scars

You’ve done your time

Listen to me

You’ve been lonely too long

Let me in the walls

You’ve built around

We can light a match

And burn them down

Let me hold your hand and dance ’round and ’round the flames

In front of us

Dust to dust

You’re like a mirror

Reflecting me

Takes one to know one

So take it from me

You’ve been lonely

You’ve been lonely too long

We’ve been lonely too long
