Dirt And Stardust

I don’t want these walls
To wall me in forever
Don’t wanna make my home on fenced in land
We can buy our lot
We can mark our spot
But we’re travelers whether we like it or not
So please make my castle out of sand
Ohhh please make my castle out of sand
I don’t want light
That lights forever
I don’t want fire that stays stable
And the wick is lit, it burns a bit
And then it goes out at the end of it
So please don’t hang a bulb above my table
Oohhhh please don’t hang a bulb above my table
Cause
I am made of
All the same stuff
That makes the seasons what they are
I am made of
Dirt and stardust
My daddy’s dreams
My mother’s heart
Ohhh
Ohhh yeah yeah yeah
Don’t want a promise
That outlives the promiser
And my body will not last longer than a metal band
And this tender expanse that’s called romance
And like anything great it’s riddled with chance
So, please don’t put a diamond on my hand
Ohh please don’t put a diamond on my hand
Hand, cause
I am made of
All the same stuff
That makes the seasons what they are
I am made of
Dirt and stardust
My daddy’s dreams
My mother’s heart
Oh my mother’s heart
Yeah
Ahhhh Ohhhhh
Ahhhh Ohhhh Ohhhh
I don’t want blooms that bloom forever
I don’t want colors that don’t
Fade away
And pedals open to the sun
And then they wilt when they’re all done
So please don’t put silk flowers on my grave
Oh please don’t put silk flowers on my grave
Grave
Cause
I am made of
All the same stuff
That makes the seasons what they are
I am made of
Dirt and stardust
My daddy’s dreams
My mothers heart
I am made of
All the same stuff
That makes the seasons what they are
I am made of
Dirt and stardust
My daddy’s dreams
My mother’s heart
Oh my mother’s heart
Yeahh yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ohhhh yeah yeah yeah yeah
Ohhhh yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Ohhhh yeah yeah yeah
Ohhhhh
