Mystery

Hugh Laurie

Transposer:

Mystery All my life has been a mystery You and I were never ever meant to be That's why I call my love for you a mystery Different country You and I have always lived in a different country And I know that airline tickets don't grow on a tree So what kept us apart is plain for me to see That much at least is not really a mystery Estuary I live in a houseboat on an estuary Which is handy for my work with the Port Authority But I know you would have found it insanitary Insanitary Taken a violent dislike to me, I'd be foolish to ignore the possibility That if we'd ever actually met, you might have hated me Still, that's not the only problem that I can see Dead since 1973 You've been dead now... wait a minute, let me see... Fifteen years come next January As a human being you are history So why do I still long for you? Why is my love so strong for you? Why did I write this song for you? Well, I guess it's just the mystery Mystery !

La chanson évoque la complexité des sentiments et des relations impossibles. L'auteur réfléchit à sa vie, entre un amour non réciproque et les barrières qui les séparent, à la fois géographiques et émotionnelles. Même si le lien avec cette personne semble être une énigme, il admet que certaines réponses sont claires. Le narrateur vit dans une maison flottante, liée à son travail, mais il se rend compte que l'autre aurait probablement désapprouvé son mode de vie. Malgré cela, il se questionne sur l'intensité de ses sentiments, même après la disparition de la personne aimée, qui remonte à plusieurs années. Ce mélange de nostalgie et de mystère souligne la persistance de l'amour au-delà des obstacles, qu'ils soient réels ou imaginaires.
