Our Guessing Game
Composer(s): Ray Thomas
Performer(s): The Moody Blues



Walking in the sand
Thinking of things, adventures in my mind
Of tall ships that sail
Across the oceans wide
They won't wait for me
See how they glide away so gracefully
And, with tomorrow, what will become of me?

They leave me so much to explain
That's the start of our guessing game

There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

Wonder why we try so hard?
Wonder why we try at all?
You wonder why the world is turning around
In the end it won't matter at all

There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

Standing in the town
Looking at people counting their frowns
Unhappy faces hurrying around
So blind they cannot see
All of the things
The way life ought to be
And, with tomorrow, what will they make of me?

It leaves me so much to explain
That's the start of our guessing game

There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong

There are times when I think I've found the truth
There are times when I know that I'm wrong
There are days when I try to hide my fears
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
Bless the days when I'm feeling strong
