Mystery Game

                                  It's not for the money

The hope and despair

It's not for the leaving

Of love that was there

If it's for danger

A fortune beware

Leaving it all back

To somewhere the same

Those mystery games



The mystery game

The mystery game



Just like a parting

A rendezvous

Glass

A lust for a passion

Long may it last

Seasons have numbed us

From a chalk to a stone

Leading us onwards

To miss or be made

Those mystery games



The mystery game

The mystery game



Telling odd stories

From a distant past

Most are remembered

The good and the bad

Like an old winding river

In a curious plot

Leading it all back

To somewhere the same

That mystery game
