lyrics

I don’t know how it happens
I just get on the plane and fly
No one tells you along the way
How 300 tons can float in the sky
And when they brewed my coffee
While waiting for the plane to depart
The reaction between hot water and bean
Was tearing my mind apart

Before I went to bed
You tried to explain on the phone
But I just want you to shut up
And leave the mystery alone

I don’t know how it happens
I just put the pen to the pad
A thought pops in and then through the pen
A written idea can be had
The thoughts can be robotic
Sometimes they might feel forced
And other times they can feel so sublime
That I’m left to ponder the source

Before I went to bed
You tried to explain on the phone
But I just want you to shut up
And leave the mystery alone

I don’t know how it happens
The connection between you and me
The chemical bond that makes us fond
Of each other’s company
There are many books about it
None of which I will read
How boring it is to take a quiz
To be with who you’re supposed to be

Before I went to bed
You tried to explain on the phone
But I just want you to shut up
And leave the mystery alone
