Mystery <br />All my life has been a mystery <br />You and I were never ever meant to be <br />That's why I call my love for you a mystery <br /><br />Different country <br />You and I have always lived in a different country <br />And I know that airline tickets don't grow on a tree <br />So what kept us apart is plain for me to see <br />That much at least is not really a mystery <br /><br />Estuary <br />I live in a houseboat on an estuary <br />Which is handy for my work with the Tamesis Port Authority <br />But I know you would have found it insanitary <br />Insanitary <br /><br />Taken a violent dislike to me <br />I'd be foolish to ignore the possibility <br />That if we'd ever actually met, you might have hated me <br />Still, that's not the only problem that I can see <br /><br />Dead since 1973 <br />You've been dead now . . . wait a minute, let me see... <br />Fifteen years come next January (JAN-uary) <br />As a human being you are history <br /><br />So why do I still long for you? <br />Why is my love so strong for you? <br />Why did I write this song for you? <br />Well, I guess it's just the mystery <br /><br />Mystery
