Hugh Laurie - Mystery (2006 Version) lyrics

rate me

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 countries,

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 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

It's just a mystery

Mystery
