One More Mystery

A songwriter friend of mine once told me he wanted to write a song called “One More Mystery”. “Damn that’s a good title”, I silently thought. I waited and waited for him to follow through, and then I figured I had waited long enough………..

I’ve been feeling kinda happy
Living out this comfortable scene
Floating steady
Sitting pretty
Man you know just what I mean
Still I feel there’s something missing
Something not quite right
And it hits me in the willy hours of the lonely night

I need one more mystery
Give me one more mystery
Yes I’m certain that would carry me
And send me along

Her kiss is like a piece of heaven
Her touch as soft as April rain
Yeah she is all I’ve ever wanted
But my mind wanders just the same
To those days when I walked lost and lonely
Wild and free
Yes I’m certain all I need is one more mystery

I need one more mystery
Give me one more mystery
Yes I’m certain that would set me free
And send me along

It’s the lure of sweet temptation
And it fits me like a glove
It’s the thrill of revelation
It’s the sultry, silky smell of love

So if you’ve been wondering
What’s that feeling
Tugging at your heart at night
If something’s pushing
If something’s pulling
If something just don’t feel quite right
The answer’s easy
Yeah it’s simple
It’s just like one -two -three
One more mystery
Yeah that sounds a lot like bliss to me

You need one more mystery
You need one more mystery
Yes I’m certain that would set you free
And send you along
