A day of uncertain weather Captured in a frame forever A face in a faded photograph }x2 He must have had a life Maybe with a family People who meant everything to him A sinner A saint A soldier Caught up in a war he never Had a chance to start or build a life All gone long ago Leaving no trace disappearing like smoke in the wind To become just a face without a name Leaving no trace disappearing like smoke in the wind Hopes and fears important plans forgotten memories Footsteps fading in the sand ooh Schemes and dreams small and grand nothing left to see Footsteps fading in the sand ooh }x2 Someone who cast a shadow   Maybe just a lazy man Doesn’t make much difference now it’s true A day of uncertain weather Captured in a frame forever A face in a faded photograph       Chorus: All gone long ago Leaving no trace disappearing like smoke in the wind To become just a face without a name One more to add to the total of those never heard of again Chorus: Yes he’s gone just a face without a name Leaving no trace disappearing like smoke in the wind All gone just a face without a name Leaving no trace disappearing like smoke in the wind
