Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Who in this world is a woman gonna trust?
Your wheel of life keeps turnin' while your carriage turns to rust.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Once I had a lover; once I had a friend,
Till they met each other and my world came to an end
They walked away together and I woke up all alone
With tears that fall like raindrops and a harvest turned to stone.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Who in this world is a woman gonna trust?
You hunger for a banquet but you're left without a crust.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Nothin' lasts forever; there's a curtain for each play,
And all that we can depend on is a day we call today.
If you have a lover, and if you have a friend,
You better keep them from each other 'cause you know how it may end.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Tell me, who in this world is a woman gonna trust?
Your wheel of life keeps turnin' while your carriage turns to rust.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Woah oh, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Ashes to ashes
