Lyric Question

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.

It s where we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution
That is burning in it s 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 wall 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 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 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.

It s where we stop and look around us
There is nothing that we need.
In a world of persecution
That is burning in it s greed.

Why do we never get an answer
When we re knocking at the door?
