Questions

Manfred Mann · Best Of Manfred Mann's Earth B [1996]

In a dream it would seem

I went to those who close the open door

And turning the key, I sat and spoke to those inside of me



They answered my questions with questions

And they pointed me into the night

Where the moon was a star-painted dancer

And the world was just a spectrum of light



They reached to my center of reason

And pulled on the touchstone that's there

The shock of that light had me reeling

And I fell into the depths of despair



Turning the key, I sat and spoke to those inside of me



They answered my questions with questions

And they set me to stand on the brink

Where the sun and the moon were as brothers

And all that was left was to think



They answered my questions with questions

And they pointed me into the night

And the power that bore me had left me alone

To figure out which way was right
