Dust

The door slams, dust falls down between the cracks Some ran, some promised they'd be back Saigon all gone, ashes to dust, a solo dance, a solo dance Chorus: And when we leave, we leave our dust, we slap our clothes, we shake it off Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam Out of the dust reach tiny hands to touch their fathers in other lands Love is locked in these lost eyes, love is lost in these cold eyes And in these wounds too raw to touch, lie ashes ashes, dust to dust (Chorus) We are free, we are not alone, listen to our sound Take these hands of flesh and bone, reaching out for love Discards settle where they must, never knowing who to trust And in these dreams that lie in rust, ashes ashes, dust to dust (Chorus) We are free, we are free
