MOODY BLUES

- The Word Lyrics

This garden universe vibrates complete.
Some we get a sound so sweet.
Vibrations reach on up to become light,
And then thru gamma, out of sight.
Between the eyes and ears there lay,
The sounds of colour and the light of a sigh.
And to hear the sun, what a thing to believe.
But it's all around if we could but perceive.
To know ultra-violet, infra-red and X-rays,
Beauty to find in so many ways.
Two notes of the chord, that's our fluoroscope.
But to reach the chord is our lifes hope.
And to name the chord is important to some.
So they give a word, and the word is OM.

What is the meaning behind The Word lyrics?


When we dive into the story the lyrics are telling, the Moody Blues song 'The Word' is about the relationship between sound and light, beauty, and perception being one and the same. The artist uses metaphors such as 'garden universe' and 'vibrations reach on up to become light' to express the idea that delving into the whole spectrum of life is a deep and optimistic endeavor. The lyric of the song mostly talks about inspiration, contemplation, hope, nature, and happiness. However, the tune also points out such concepts as perception and understanding, the beauty of what is not seen, and the oneness and wholeness. The words give vent to abstract and poetic reflections on sound, light, and sensing. There are no words, violence, or explicit content that would be unsuitable for kids and teenagers.
