Dust In The Wind

Song: Dust In The Wind

I close my eyesOnly for a moment and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes in 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
Don't hang on
Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky
It slips away
All your money won't another minute buy

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

回複科夫的評論:

記得有一句名言是這麽說的：我們不能同時踏進同一條河流。逝去的日子，無法追回。同樣的日子，卻是不同的記憶了。

[科夫]

誰說日子一去不複返？

昨日過後有今天，睡過一覺又天明...

[林貝卡]

昨天在《美語世界》論壇，聽到網友濫竽衝數貼的這首歌曲《Dust In The Wind》，一下子就被這旋律和歌詞給吸引了。

今天早上又去《美語世界》論壇聽了幾遍，忍不住就搬來了。一看到演唱者是Kansas，我還是第一次知道這個樂隊，也是第一次聽到這首歌曲。

看到Kansas,就想到了Kansas State. Kansas State對我來說很親切，薄篳有親戚在哪裏，我們不時地去哪裏，拜親訪友。記得不知道在那本書裏讀到的：如果你戀上了一個人，你也會喜歡他/她在的城市。

後來又去網上查到了Kansas樂隊的介紹，他們果然是來自Kansas. Kansa tribeis often said to mean "people of the wind" or "people of the south wind".繼而也讓我想起了這首歌名：Dust In The Wind. 不由感慨：“藝術來源於生活，卻高於生活。”

聽著這歌曲，感歎著光陰易逝，Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky；All we are is dust in the wind。不由得想起朱自清的《匆匆》了。

“燕子去了，有再來的時候；楊柳枯了，有再青的時候；桃花謝了，有再開的時候。但是，聰明的，你告訴我，我們的日子為什麽一去不複返呢？”

Kansas

Kansas (IPA: /ˈkænzəs/) is a Midwestern state in the central region of the United States of America, an area often referred to as the American "Heartland". It is a state with both Midwestern and Southern cultural influences, reflecting its history as a border state. It is named after the Kansas River which flows through it, which in turn was named after the Kansa tribe, who inhabited the area.The tribe's name (natively kką:ze) is often said to mean "people of the wind" or "people of the south wind", although this was probably not the term's original meaning. Residents of Kansas are called "Kansans".

Historically, the area was home to large numbers of nomadic Native Americans that hunted bison. It was first settled by European Americans in the 1830s, but the pace of settlement accelerated in the 1850s, in the midst of political wars over the slavery issue. When officially opened to settlement by the U.S. government in 1854, abolitionist Free-Staters from New England and pro-slavery settlers from neighboring Missouri rushed to the territory to determine if Kansas would become a free state or a slave state. Thus, the area was a hotbed of violence and chaos in its early days as these forces collided, and was known as Bleeding Kansas. The abolitionists eventually prevailed and on January 29, 1861, Kansas entered the Union as a free state. After the Civil War, the population of Kansas exploded when waves of immigrants turned the prairie into productive farmland. Today, Kansas is one of the most productive agricultural states, producing many crops, and leading the nation in wheat and sunflower production most years.
