It should come as no surprise
To see the nowhere man
Going round in crazy circles
Caught up in the master plan
But let me put you wise
Plans don’t mean a thing
Cos when you’re out here in the open
You can see through everything
That’s when the stardust will begin to sting
Just when you think you’re taking to the wing
You walk up to the mirror
Then you gaze right in
Till your eyes self hypnotize
And it looks as though
You’re bound to win
But when the back starts peeling
The cracks will soon appear
Your image fades
You see right through
It all becomes quite clear
It’s just the stardust getting in I fear
The stardust from eternity to here
If we could see the secrets
Locked up in the stars
They shine down but time winds blow
The stardust BACK into your eyes
And when you’re feeling sleepy
It’s just the sandman in some new disguise
Blowing stardust down your way
From somewhere out beyond the skies
It’s the stardust blowing in your eyes
The stardust blowing in your eyes
Star – dust – Blowing in your eyes
Star – dust – Blowing in your eyes
Star – dust – Blowing in your eyes
Oh, will that childhood world endure?
For it is so perfect and so pure
Like some special dream you wrapped around
Because it helps to make you feel secure
It’s the stardust blowing in your eyes
The stardust blowing in your eyes
