[Intro] I used to think it was pretty The way the sun shadowed me The dust had shadows then Or so it seemed to me Back when the dust and me were friends. [First Verse] Pastor Tot used to say The sun and the dust was people All the people of the world Ground up and blown away Flying on God’s good sunlight All around the world All going somewhere Although where he never told. [Chorus] And every time we breathe We take somebody in Make them part of us Carry them along their road. [Second Verse] Pastor Tot’s not in the dust. But he might be dust by now. The wind and the sun will have to push To raise him from below. He's safe down there For longer than I’ve got And God that won’t be long I’m mostly sure of that. [Chorus] And every time we breathe We take somebody in Make them part of us Carry them along their road. [Bridge] A long time It'll be a long time Before anyone gets a breath of Good old Pastor Tot It'll be a long time Longer than I've got. Oh, I wish I could get a breath of him. That would be something, I suppose. [Chorus] And every time we breathe We take somebody in Make them part of us Carry them along their road. Yes, every time we breathe We take somebody in Oh, I wish I could get a breath of him. That would be something, I suppose.
