Speak Low If You Speak Love – Mystery's Gone lyrics

[Verse 1]
And I left ‘cause I saw my mother there
And your wrists, not your forehead or your hair
Was thin enough for gentle touch to break off a souvenir
So I left, and I left behind a mess

[Pre-Chorus]
That I expected you to clean up
How can I transfer this blame?
Oh now because

[Chorus]
The mystery’s gone
We waited so long
And I stupidly set a trap for me
Cause now that we know
Each other with no clothes
I’m wondering why it doesn’t taste as sweet

[Verse 2]
It’s for the best a familiar voice whispers
But your scent strives to lure me back to bed
I’m not strong enough to refuse your touch if the promise is happiness
But it’s for a moment and now there’s nothing left

[Pre-Chorus]
Now there’s nothing left
Now there’s nothing left

[Chorus]
The mystery’s gone
We waited so long
And I stupidly set a trap for me again
And now that we know
Each other with no clothes
I’m wondering why it doesn’t taste as sweet
It doesn’t taste as sweet
It doesn’t taste as…

[Outro]
And in the dark we left a mark
We shaped the way that we behaved
And if it’s what we wanted
Why’s it feel like we lost?

And in the dark with lowered guards
The words we used for love untruths
And if it’s what we wanted
Why’s it feel like we lost?

And in the dark we left a mark
That shaped the way that we behaved
And if it’s what we wanted
Why’s it feel like we lost?

And in the dark with lowered guards
The words we used for love untruths
And if it’s what we wanted
Why’s it feel like we lost?
Why’s it feel like we…
