Willy Porter - Mystery lyrics

Rollin' through my mind like a carnival Cotton candy, the queen of the fair The moon burned through your fabric like a gypsy moth You danced drunk on the air On the air I said what I like about you Are all the birds that you set free I see 'em out on the wire 'Neath the streetlight And the mystery of you Keeps me holdin' on Like the mystery of two Keeps me down where the river banks bend With barefoot stars and satellites I studied the lines of your face Tucked them away in the sweet light In the sweet light It's the broken man in me Had given up on gettin' through The bare trees of my history The days before you What I love about you Are all the things that I can't see When you take off your dress In the sweet light And the mystery of you Keeps me holdin' on Like the mystery of truth Keeps me holdin' on Yeah, the mystery of you Keeps me holdin' on forever It goes on Oh It goes on Yeah Silhouettes and photographs Color the lines around the past All the carnage, all the tears Along the road to getting here Yeah, the mystery of you Keep me holdin' on Like the mystery of you, you Yeah, the mystery of you
