Mystery by The Effection Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2003

Hey there, one way street, I've missed your crooked asphalt
Lead me to the dead end road
See there, parking lot, no more mom and pop shop
Just soulless supermarket glow
Duty called and I had to leave you
Away to far-off distant lands
I left a boy, and i've returned this broken man
Hey there, mystery
Throw your hands into the sky
Now be my destiny, surrender
Old friends click again to your local backbeat
I guess I had to hit and run
But now the bastard son returns to claim his heritage as
The rightful heir to the air in kingdom come
Sorry that I could not write you
I'm not the correspondence kind
Scream at me cathartically, I will not mind
Hey there, mystery
Throw your hands into the sky
Now be my destiny, surrender
Hey there, mystery
You can hold your head up high now
When you speak of me, surrender
Divine providence has seen you change a bit, but
The years have treated you so kind
But no more corner store, no more manhunt weekends
No more school, and no more five and dime
Duty called and I had to leave you
Away to far-off distant lands
I left a boy, and I've returned this broken man
Hey there, mystery
Throw your hands into the sky
Now be my destiny, surrender
Hey there, mystery
You can hold your head up high now
When you think of me, surrender
Hey there, mystery, you're still a mystery to me
