Some Dusty Things

The world is a very small place And before we know We're back in our own space Some dusty things to remind us All of our time on earth How sweet and precious it was And how we will never be the same For love is a very small word It’s easy to say but seldom is heard Above the war that lives on And on in the hearts of men How sweet and precious it was But now can it ever be that way again? Have no fear If we’re nearing the end We’ll just drink to old friends The world is a very hard place When lost in a crowd We search for a kind face Some trusting soul to confide In arms we can hide into Some sweet sad face from a passing train We may never see again Some dusty things to remind us All of our time on earth How sweet and precious it was And how we will never be the same
