    Question (Lyrics by 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?

    'Cos 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 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?
    'Cos when we stop and look around us,
    There is nothing that we need,
    In a world of persecution
    That is burning in its greed.

          One of the best songs of the Era. Funny how the words still ring true. But truth is like that isn't it? It is neither right or left, fashionable or unstylish, it is merely so.

            Thanks rfe

            I heard libsRfunny got banned yesterday and that he has already come back as "GOopy" ... any truth to that rumor? I have noticed that a number of veterans are dropping off their participation on Propeller; many feel that these wingnuts are given special consideration. I've never seen things this quiet, frankly.

              Yes, libsR was banned a couple days ago and a sockpuppet named GOPPY subsequently appeared on a few threads before being banned,

                They should have banned libsR a long time ago; since waiting so long, they have lost a number of solid members that would have not left if it wasn't for libs.

              hey spade, long time no comment to. thanks for sharing this. these guys may be a little before my time, but I love the lyrics...

              With a thousand million questions
              About hate and death and war?
              'Cos when we stop and look around us,
              There is nothing that we need,
              In a world of persecution
              That is burning in its greed.

              Yet another place you and I can find common ground.

                  My molecular biology teacher said that the best people have more questions than answers, and that finding a great question was like a secret of life.
