Mystery
Safari on Pluto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Saw you last night but you didn't see me
Should have left real fast but I stayed all night long
Tried to get an idea of what's goin' on
But the more I tried the more I found

It's a mystery to me, it's a mystery to me
It's a mystery to me, such a mystery to me
I know it ain't black or white but I can't see no grey
Can't see anything at all not a trace along the trail
To show me the way to the secret map
I need to search in the wild look all over the world

It's a mystery to me, such a mystery to me
It's a mystery to me, still a mystery to me
It's a mystery to me, yes it's a mystery to me
Such a mystery to me, you're a mystery to me

Still a mystery to me, it's a mystery to me
It's amystery to me, still a mystery to me
It's a mystery to me, it's a mystery to me
It's still a mystery to me, you are a mystery to me

It's amystery to me, it's still a mystery to me
It's a mystery, you are a mystery to me




It's a mystery to me, it's a mystery to me
It's still a mystery to me, you are a mystery to me
