Every day the Earth revolves, just as it's always done
Rotating on its axis as it orbits 'round the sun
Every day that I revolve, revolve around your heart
I know that if I stop that I would surely break apart
And if the odds were done
On finding anyone
They'd be the kind of odds you'd never trust
Cos we are all just dust
Twenty billion human beings, all on the planet face
Caught up by the state we're in, no by a state of grace
Of all the things that I don't know, of one thing I am sure
It's miraculous that anyone finds anyone at all
And yes I realise
That it is no surprise
When my steely self-resolve has turned to rust
Cos we are all just dust
There's precious little point pretending
We understand the life we're getting
All these things are sent to test you
I'm thankful for the day I met you
It may be written in the stars, but darling don't you know
They're all that's left of planets that have burned out long ago
We are all just dust
Cos we are all just dust
There's precious little point pretending
We understand the life we're getting
All these things are sent to test you
I'm thankful for the day I met you
We are all just dust
