All gone
All gone, long ago
One more to add to the total
Footsteps fadin' in the sand, ohh oh
Just a face without a name
All gone, long ago, ooh
Someone who cast a shadow
Hopes and fears important plans
Caught up in a war he never
Maybe just a lazy man
Nothin' left to see
To become just a face without a name
People who meant everything to him
Leavin' no trace
A face in a faded photograph
Forgotten memories
Captured in a frame forever
Disappearin' like smoke in the wind
Leavin' no trace
Leavin' no trace
To become, just a face without a name
Disappearin' like smoke in the wind
Disappearin' like smoke in the wind
A face in a faded photograph
Had a chance to start or build a life
Footsteps fadin' in the sand, ohh oh
A sinner, a saint, a soldier
Yes, he's gone
Leavin' no trace
Just a face without a name
Leavin' no trace
He must have had a life
Of those never heard of again
Disappearin' like smoke in the wind
Doesn't make much difference now it's true
Schemes and dreams, small and grand
A day of uncertain weather
Maybe with a family
