Lyrics of 'Return Into Dust' by Gordon Lightfoot

Do you want to know the lyrics of Return Into Dust by Gordon Lightfoot? You're in the right place.

They said seek and ye shall find
All I ever find was this trouble in my mind
One of these days I will set myself free
Ain't no one else who can put the bite on me
But until then I'll do it again

They said seek and ye shall know
All I ever saw was a heaven here below, or so it goes
The time meant for us like the rose
We will return into dust

They said sow and ye shall reap
All I ever saw was this dream that I can't keep
One little wheat field yields a little grain
Rough times, tough times are all one and the same
But as for now, time don't allow

They said search and destroy
All that you hold dear
Like the laughter you keep hearing through the years
A time meant for us, all our fears
Will return into dust

They said ask and it shall be
And all I can tell you is, baby, it ain't free
One more request and then I'll be on my way
I'll pay the price, love, start a brand new day
But until then, let us be friends

They said drink and be restored
All I ever drank
Made me wind up on the floor and what is more
A mind turned to rust, that's for sure
We will return into dust
Through the years
A time meant for us, all our fears
Will return into dust
