"Eternity Road" is a song by the band the Moody Blues, written by band member Ray Thomas, from their 1969 album To Our Children's Children's Children.

Background

Interviewed by Jason Barnard, for website thestrangebrew.co.uk in 2014, Thomas said:

I was born in 1941 and during the war I was taken down the air raid shelter. There was our family and two other families who were our neighbours. Sometimes the Luftwaffe were all over us before even the sirens came off. Every night my grandmother would go "Hark" and her friend Mrs Ackland, next-door, would go "Listen". Mrs James lived on the other side would then go "Here he comes." So they became known as "Hark", "Listen" and "Here he comes." So that stuck in my head so that’s how I started "Eternity Road".
