[Moody Blues, "Question of Balance"]
|
(Justin Hayward)
|
|
Why do we never get an answer
|
When we're knocking at the door
|
With a thousand million questions
|
About hate and death and war?
|
'cuz when we stop and look around us
|
there is nothing that we need
|
in a world of persecution
|
that is parting in its greed
|
|
Why do we never get an answer
|
when we're knocking at the door?
|
because the truth is hard to swallow
|
it's like a wall of blood before...
|
|
It's not the way that you say it when you do those things to me
|
it's more the way that you mean it when you tell me what will be and when you stop and think about it
|
you won't believe it's true
|
that all the love you've been giving
|
|
has all been meant for you I'm looking for someone to change my life
|
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
|
but if you could see what it's done to me
|
to lose the love I knew
|
that safely leads me through...
|
|
Between the silence of the mountains and the crashing of the sea
|
there lies a land I once lived in
|
and she's waiting there for me
|
but in the grey of the morning
|
my mind becomes confused
|
between the dead, and the sleeping,
|
and the road that I must choose
|
|
I'm looking for someone to change my life
|
I'm looking for a miracle in my life
|
and if you could see what it's done to me
|
to lose the love I knew
|
could safely lead me to
|
the land that I once knew
|
the land as we grow old
|
the secrets of our soul
|
|
It's not the way that you say it when you do those things to me
|
it's more the way you really mean it when you tell me what will be
|
|
Why do we never get an answer
|
when we're knocking at the door?
|
with a thousand million questions
|
about hate and death and war
|
but when we stop and look around us
|
there is nothing that we need
|
in a world of persecution
|
that is parting in its greed
|
