Dust in the Wind Lyrics
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
Nothin' 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

Dust in the Wind Song Facts
Kansas guitarist Kerry Livgren wrote Dust in the Wind after reading a book of Native American poetry. The line that caught his attention was, "For all we are is dust in the wind."

Kerry Livgren devised what would be the guitar line for 'Dust in the Wind' as a finger exercise for learning fingerpicking. His wife, Vicci, heard what he was doing, remarked that the melody was nice, and encouraged him to write lyrics for it. Livgren was unsure whether his fellow band members would like it, since it was a departure from their signature style.

After Kansas had rehearsed all the songs intended for the band's recording sessions of June and July 1976, Livgren played 'Dust in the Wind' for his bandmates, who after a moment's "stunned silence." Kansas guitarist Rich Williams would recall that Livgren played his bandmates "a real rough recording of him playing ['Dust in the Wind'] on an old reel to reel. [He] just kind of mumbled the lyrics, [but] even [hearing it] in that bare form...we said: 'That's our next single.'

Band [Kansas] Reactions to Dust in the Wind Success
Steve Walsh (1979): "I thought [Dust in the Wind] would be a hit from the very first. It [defies] the basic formulas that most [rock] groups try to follow. They don't realize that it's not the formula [that matters], it's the song."

The Creative Guitarist Method Series was written and designed by Kevin J. Paluzzi of Paluzzi Guitar Instruction in San Diego, CA.
