LYRICS

Somewhere in the distance
Hidden from view
Suspended in the atmosphere
Waiting to come through
Sometimes it's so far away
Sometimes it's very near
A sound being carried by the wind
Just loud enough to hear

I feel its power within me
Bells ringing in my head
So often I have heard its cry
But forgotten what it said

It's a mystery, it's a mystery
I'm still searching for a clue
It's a mystery to me

A shot in the dark
The big question mark in history
Is it a mystery to you?

It can treat you with a vengeance
Trip you in the dark
Sirens in the distance
Can steer you from the path

It can lift you to the heavens
Put your troubles in the past
Whisper the elixir
Then vanish in a blast

It's a mystery, it's a mystery
I'm still searching for a clue
It's a mystery to me

A shot in the dark
The big question mark in history
Is it a mystery to you?
