It's not for the money The hope and despair It's not for the leaving Of love that was there If it's for danger A fortune beware Leaving it all back To somewhere the same Those mystery games
The mystery game The mystery game
Just like a parting A rendezvous Glass A lust for a passion Long may it last Seasons have numbed us From a chalk to a stone Leading us onwards To miss or be made Those mystery games
The mystery game The mystery game
Telling odd stories From a distant past Most are remembered The good and the bad Like an old winding river In a curious plot Leading it all back To somewhere the same That mystery game
