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
(Riff)
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
(Riff)
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… Insanitary…
(Riff)
Hate me
I'd be foolish to ignore the possibility
That if we'd ever actually met, you might have hated me
Still, thats not the only problem that I can see
(Riff)
Dead since 1993
You've been dead now . . . wait a minute, let me see
Fourteen years come next January
As a human being you are history
So why do why 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
