Red Dust

Red dust blew in from the Sahara today
They tell us there’s nothing to fear
Margaret she worried about it all
But she didn’t live through the year
She didn’t live through the dust
You will return to dust
You have returned red dust
You will turn my head
I’m watching the sun falling
Falling from the sky
It’s reflected in the pond
And it’s reflected in my mind
It reminds me of the dress she wore
When they put her in the ground
When they put her in the dust
You will return to dust
You have returned red dust
You will turn my head
Doesn’t the pain ever go away
Makes living so much harder
Leave behind your superstitious mind
Start again tomorrow
Red dust blew in from the Sahara today
They tell us there’s nothing to fear
Margaret she worried about it all
But she didn’t live through the year
