Question — текст песни (The Moody Blues)

Why do we never get an answer
when we`re knocking at the door ?
There`s a thousand million questions
about hate and death and war.

Ah
-----

`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.

Ah
-----

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 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
you`d 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
you`d safely lead me through.
the land that I once knew

to learn 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.
