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
