The Questions

Life, Did you answer the question of life? 
What are we doing here, in the light.
 Frontier, I cross to a new body sphere. 
And the actions of my past life, were they right?

Time, did you answer the question of time?
How long to fill the body bags, in a war?
That we fight, when we fight for political right.
The question of humanity, we ignore.  

Oh, then I ask myself is there no tomorrow, no tomorrow?
 I can see for myself that there’s tomorrow, no tomorrow.

 Run, sometimes I wish I could run.
 I’d hide from the things I see, with my eyes

War does anyone know what it’s for? 
And do the Gods avoid injury, when we cry?

Oh then I ask myself is there no tomorrow, no tomorrow? 
Well, I can see for myself that there’s tomorrow, no tomorrow.

Oh then I ask myself is there no tomorrow, no tomorrow? 
Well, I can see for myself that there’s tomorrow, no tomorrow.
No tomorrow…

 solo  

Waiting in lines, you’re on my mind.
And I can’t find this piece of my mind. 

Oh then I ask myself is there no tomorrow, no tomorrow? 
Well, I can see for myself that there’s tomorrow, no tomorrow.

Oh then I ask myself is there no tomorrow, no tomorrow? 
Well, I can see for myself that there’s tomorrow, no tomorrow.
No tomorrow…

Double Figures
by Lachy Doley

supported by 5 fans who also own “The Questions”

Incredible passion in his music... the singing is great, ans his command of the Hammond Organ is off the Charts! If you can't get into the groove listening to Lachy, you better check your pulse... His cover of Gimme Some Lovin is off the hook, and Voodoo Child is an exploration in new and creative was to properly abuse a Hohner Whammy Clavichord! reverendbow
