LIVGREN, Kerry

Dust in the wind

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do crumbles to the ground though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

Now, don't hang on, nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
And all your money won't another minute buy
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind
Everything is dust in the wind

Stof in de wind

Ik doe m'n ogen dicht, even maar, en voorbij is ‘t ogenblik

Al mijn dromen komen voor mijn ogen, wonderlijk!

Stof in de wind,

Niets zijn zij dan stof in de wind

Een druppel water in een eindeloze zee, het oude lied

Al ons doen verkruimelt op de grond en we zien het niet

Stof in de wind

Niets zijn wij dan stof in de wind

Klamp je niet vast, niets blijft duren, behalve hemel en aarde

Het glipt voorbij

En met al je geld koop je geen minuutje waarde

Stof in de wind

Niets zijn wij dan stof in de wind

Stof in de wind

Alles is stof in de wind

Alles is stof in de wind

Carry On Wayward Son

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry no more

Once I rose above the noise and confusion

Just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion

I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high

Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man

Though my mind could think I still was a mad man

I hear the voices when I'm dreaming

I can hear them say

Carry on my wayward son

…..

Masquerading as a man with a reason

My charade is the event of the season

And if I claim ob e a wise man

Well, it surely means that I don’t know

On a stormy sea of moving emotion

Tossed about, I’m like a ship on the ocean

I set a course for winds of fortune

But I hear the voices say

Carry on my wayward son

…..

Carry on

You will always remember

Carry on

Nothing equals the splendor

Now your life's no longer empty

Surely heaven waits for you

Carry on my wayward son

There'll be peace when you are done

Lay your weary head to rest

Don't you cry

Don't you cry no more

No more!
