Anyone remember the theme song from the film Mahogany, written by Michael Masser and Gerald Goffin, 1975, performed by Diana Ross?
(Chorus)
Do You Know
Where you’re going to?
Do you like the things?
That life is showing you
Where are you going to?
Do you know?
Do you get?
What you’re hoping for?
When you look behind you
There’s no open doors
What are you hoping for?
Do you know?
Once we were standing still, in time
Chasing the fantasies and feeling all nice
You knew how I loved you, but my-spirit was free
Laughing at the questions
That you once asked of me
(Chorus)
(Musical Bridge)
Now looking back at all we’ve had
We let so many dreams just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long, before we see?
How sad the answers to those questions can be
(Chorus)
Do you get?
What you’re hoping for
When you look behind you
There’s no open doors
What are you hoping for?
Do you know?

don’t remember the film .. but the lyrics ring a bell..
Love the song. Dianne Ross’s voice still caresses my heart. Haven’t seen the film. Should I?
I’ve never seen the film either, being 1975, I’m thinking flares, floral prints and highly dressed hairdos…….
Wonderful song. Brings back all sorts of memories.
Love the film and the song! What a great reference. And I do know what I’m hoping for, but I don’t think any of us can predict where we’re going, only where we hope we’re going. 🙂
How true! I guess being open to new possibilities helps too. Thank you for your comment.
Totally. A lesson I’m still learning, to remain open to new possibilities even when Plan A doesn’t work out. It takes grace.
