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 windDust in the wind, everything is dust in the wind

Children play in the park, they don't know
I'm alone in the dark, even though
Time and time again I see your face smiling inside

I'm so happy
That you love me
Life is lovely
When you're near me
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile

Living life is just a game so they say
All the games we used to play fade away
We may now enjoy the dreams we shared so long ago

Oh my darling,
got to have you.
Feel the magic
when I hold you
Cry sweet tears of joy, touch the sky

I was alone, I took a ride, I didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I could see another kind of mind there

Ooh, then I suddenly see you, Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day of my life

You didn't run, you didn't lie You knew I wanted just to hold you
And had you gone you knew in time we'd meet again
For I had told you

Ooh, you were meant to be near me, Ooh, and I want you hear me
Say we'll be together every day

Got to get you into my life. Got to get you into my life

What can I do, what can I be, When I'm with you I want to stay there
If I'm true I'll never leave And if I do I know the way there

Ooh, then I suddenly see you, Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day of my life

Got to get you into my life, Got to get you into my life

I was alone, I took a ride, I didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I could see another kind of mind there
Then suddenly I see you, Did I tell you I need you...

Sometimes late when things are real
and people share the gift of gab between themselves
some are quick to take the bait
and catch the perfect prize that waits among the shelves 

But Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man
that he didn't, didn't already have
and Cause never was the reason for the evening
or the tropic of Sir Galahad. 

So please believe in me
when I say I'm spinning round, round, round, round
smoke glass stain bright color
image going down, down, down, down
soapsuds green like bubbles 

Oh, Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man
that he didn't, didn't already have
and Cause never was the reason for the evening
or the tropic of Sir Galahad 

So please believe in me
when I say I'm spinning round, round, round, round
smoke glass stain bright color
image going down, down, down, down
soapsuds green like bubbles 

No, Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man
that he didn't, didn't already have
And Cause never was the reason for the evening Or the tropic of Sir Galahad, So please believe in me

Well my mind keeps goin' through them changes
I think I'm goin outta my mind
Every time you see me goin somewhere
I think I could commit a crime yea
Oh my baby she left me the other day
and we were havin so much fun yea, yea
Yea my woman she stepped out on me
And thats the reason I'm on the run

She's got me runnin
She's got me Hidin
She's got me runninhidinrunninhidin yea
She's got me runnin
She's got me hidin
She's got me runninhidinrunninhidin

Hey, have you ever tried, really reaching out for the other side?
I'm may be climbing on rainbows
but baby, here goes.

Dreams, they're for those who sleep, life is for us to keep
and if you're wondering what this song is leading to
I want to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl.

Ooooh! you don't know me well
and every little thing only time will tell
if you believe the things I do, and we'll see it through.

Life can be short or long, love can be right or wrong
and if i choose the one I'd like
to help me through
I'll like to make it with you
I really think that we can make it girl.

Baby you know that,
dreams they're for those who sleep
life is for us to keep
and if i choose the one I'd like to help me through
I'll like to make it with youI really think that we can make it girl

One fine morning, girl, I'll wake up, wipe the sleep from my eyes
Go outside and feel the sunshine, then I know I'll realize
That as long as you love me, girl, we'll fly

And on that mornin' when I wake up, I'll see your face inside a cloud
See your smile inside a window, hear your voice inside a crowd
Calling, "Come with me baby and we'll fly"
 
Yeah, we'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
We'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly

And on that mornin' when I wake up, We'll go outside and live our dreams
I'll buy you candies made of stardust, And little dolls dressed up in moonbeams
And everywhere we go we'll laugh and sing,
I'll kiss you morning, noon and night
And all the universe will smile on us,
'Cause they know that our love is finally right

Yeah, we'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
We'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly

Yeah, we'll fly to the east, we'll fly to the west
There'll be no place we can't call our own
Yeah, we'll fly to the north, we'll fly to the south
Every planet will become our home

Yeah, we'll fly-y-y, yeah, we'll fly
Yeah, we'll fly to the east, we'll fly to the west
There'll be no place we can't call our own
We'll fly to the north, we'll fly to the south                                       Every planet will become our home

On a dark desert highway, cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas, rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance, I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy, and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night

There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell, and I was thinking to myself
This could be Heaven or this could beHell Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way there were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say

Welcome to the Hotel California Such a lovely place
Such a lovely place, Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year, you can find it here

Her mind is Tiffany twisted She's got the Mercedes Benz
She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys That she calls friends
How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget

So I called up the Captain, please bring me my wine
He said We haven't had that spirit here since 1969
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night Just to hear them say

Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place, Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise, Bring your alibies

Mirrors on the ceiling, pink champagne on ice
And she said We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device, and in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast, they stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast

Last thing I remember I was running for the door I had to find the passage back, to the place I was before
Relax said the nightman, we are programed to recieve
You can check out any time you like But you can never leave
