Clara Benin Dust Lyrics
Dust by Clara Benin
I was born on a rainy night
A Wednesday of February
I cried when I opened my eyes
That was the first time I saw the light
I remember the thunder's roar
I never felt so small
So I hugged my knees and drifted to sleep
That was the first time I ever dreamed
While I'm looking on to Heaven's gates
You're longing for your good old days
We are what we celebrate
We celebrate who we are
Look what's become of us
Aren't we all just made of dust
Don't we all just wanna go home
Don't we all just wanna belong
When I look up at the stars
The city disappears
I breathe in deep, I'm at perfect peace
From the top of my head to the soles of my feet
While I ponder on my funeral
You're planning your next carousal
The more you know, the miserable
You become what you know
Look what's become of us
Aren't we all just made of dust
Don't we all just wanna go home
Don't we all just wanna belong
Oh how I long to meet my maker
Oh how I long to know my creator
Oh how I long
Oh how I long
Oh how I long to be home
I was born on a rainy night
A Wednesday of February
I cried when I opened my eyes
That was the first time I saw the light
I remember the thunder's roar
I never felt so small
So I hugged my knees and drifted to sleep
That was the first time I ever dreamed
While I'm looking on to Heaven's gates
You're longing for your good old days
We are what we celebrate
We celebrate who we are
Look what's become of us
Aren't we all just made of dust
Don't we all just wanna go home
Don't we all just wanna belong
When I look up at the stars
The city disappears
I breathe in deep, I'm at perfect peace
From the top of my head to the soles of my feet
While I ponder on my funeral
You're planning your next carousal
The more you know, the miserable
You become what you know
Look what's become of us
Aren't we all just made of dust
Don't we all just wanna go home
Don't we all just wanna belong
Oh how I long to meet my maker
Oh how I long to know my creator
Oh how I long
Oh how I long
Oh how I long to be home
I was born on a rainy night
