10000 Maniacs Let The Mystery Be Lyrics

Let The Mystery Be Lyrics

[ Iris DeMent ]
[ From her debut album: Infamous Angel ] 

Chorus: 
Everybody`s wondering what and where they all came from 
Everybody`s worrying `bout where they`re gonna go 
When the whole thing`s done 
Nobody knows for certain, 
And so it`s all the same to me 
I Think I`ll just let the mystery be 

Some say once gone, you`re gone forever 
Some say you`re gonna come back 
Some say you rest in the arms of the Savior 
if in sinful ways you lack 
Some say that they`re comin` back in a garden 
Bunch of carrots and little sweet peas 
I Think I`ll just let the mystery be 

Some say they`re going to place called Glory 
And I ain`t sayin` it ain`t a fact 
But I`ve heard that I`m on the road to purgatory 
And I don`t like the sound of that 
I believe in love and I live my life accordingly 
But I choose to let the mystery be
