I'm just confused, by candles and prayers.
I just need to know, if You are there.
Show me the way, for I long to see.
If You are real, be real to me,
If You are real, be real to me.

Well Diane, We had never heard of this song "Questions" but had seen these words on a web-site and stupidly thought it was Cliff asking the Questions about prayer etc. :oops: :roll:
Anyway here's another verse..........

It's not that you're Fairer.
Than A Lot Of Girls Just As Pleasin-
That I Doff My Hat.
As A Worshipper At Your Shrine
It's Not That Your Rarer
Than Asparagus Out Of Season.
No My Darling, This Is The Reason.
Why You've Got To Be Mine.

I'LL BE LOVING YOU ALWAYS
THE MORE I SEE YOU
LET ME SING AND I'M HAPPY

THE GIRL WHO USED TO BE
LOSE YOURSELF
I CAN'T GET STARTED.
WONDROUS PLACE.
DEARLY BELOVED

Terra we are sure will know this one too, it's an easy one to be going on with.

. A LONG TIME AGO, A MILLION YEARS BC.
THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE WERE ABSOLUTELY FREE.
BUT NO ONE APPRECIATED A SKY THAT WAS ALWAYS BLUE.
AND NO ONE CONGRATULATED A MOON THAT WAS ALWAYS NEW.
SO IT WAS PLANNED THAT IT WOULD VANISH NOW AND THEN.
AND YOU MUST PAY BEFOREYOU GET THEM BACK AGAIN
THAT'S WHAT STORMS WERE MADE FOR AND YOU SHOULDN'T
BE AFRAID FOR.......
