Question

by the Moody Blues

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?

’cause when we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution that is burning in its greed.

Why do we never get an answer
When we’re knocking at the door?
Because the truth is hard to swallow
That’s what the war of love is for.

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.
And if you could see what it’s done to me
To lose the love I knew
Could safely lead 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.
To learn as we grow old
The secrets of our souls.

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?

When we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution that is burning in its greed.

The Moody Blues are a rock group that have been around for since the 1960’s.

You’ll always end up coming through,
But you’ll find yourself lost in space
now and again.”

take care
stay safe

…I know today is Earth Day, although I didn’t “know” it was a national thing until I heard it on the radio, and how protestors are blocking traffic in D.C. I wonder if they would prefer having the truckers circling right about now? Which, by the way, I do believe they will be heading back to the D.C. area soon.
Maybe I’ll do a post soon commemorating it, but in all honesty, every day is Earth Day here at Holly’s World. So, how would I make it different than my other posts and not feel like I’m repeating myself? Maybe I can share how I take care of the land that I have called home for 45 years now…or what I don’t do…I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.
