Ashes to Ashes - Jill Barber

Our heads are hanging low

And our hearts at half mast

Ever since the day

They took you with it when it passed

Ashes to ashes

And dust to dust

We let go

Because we must

And where does it

Take you when it goes?

No one really knows, it’s

Anybody’s guess

Some folks say

It’s where the wind blows, and

Where the sea flows

And the sun sets

But here we go

On with the livin'

And try to match the love we give

With the love that we’ve been given

Ashes to ashes

And dust to dust

We let go

Because we must

And days pass

And nights continue to fall

Time moves ahead with it

Like nothing at all

But at some turn

We reach the final page

When we die too young, or

Of old age

Ashes to ashes

And dust to dust

We let go

Because we must
