The door slams
Dust falls down between the cracks
Some ran some promised they'd be back
Saigon all gone ashes to dust
A solo dance a solo dance
And when we leave we leave our dust
We slap our clothes we shake it off
Cambodia Laos Vietnam
Out of the dust reach tiny hands
To touch their fathers in other lands
Love is locked in these lost eyes
Love is lost in these cold eyes
And in these wounds too raw to touch
Lie ashes ashes, dust to dust
We are free
We are not alone
Listen to our sound
Take these hands of flesh and bone
Reaching out for love
Discards settle where they must
Never knowing who to trust
And in these dreams that lie in rust
Stir ashes ashes, dust to dust
And when we leave we leave our dust
We slap our clothes we shake it off
Cambodia Laos Vietnam
Out of the dust reach tiny hands
To touch their fathers in other lands
