Mystery All my life has been a mystery You and I were never ever meant to be That's why I call my love for you a mystery
Different country You and I have always lived In a different country And I know that airline tickets don't grow On a tree So what kept us apart is plain for me to see That much at least Is not really a mystery
Estuary I live in a houseboat on an estuary Which is handy for my work With the Port Authority But I know you would have found it Insanitary Insanitary
Hated me I'd be foolish to ignore the possibility That if we ever actually met You might have taken a really violent dislike to me Still that's not the only problem that I can see
Dead since 1993 You've been dead now Wait a minute let me see 14 years Come next January As a human being you are history
So why do I still long for you Why is my love so strong for you Why did I write this song for you Well I guess it's just a mystery Just a mystery Mystery
