Let the Mystery Be - 10,000 Maniacs

Everybody's wondering what and where

They all came from

Everybody's worrying about

Where they're gonna go

When the whole thing's done

But no one 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

And 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 coming back in a garden

Bunch of carrots and little sweet peas

I think I'll just let the mystery be

Everybody's wondering what and where

They all came from

Everybody's worrying about

Where they're gonna go

When the whole thing's done

But no one knows for certain

And so it's all the same to me

I'll just let the mystery be

Some say they're going

To a place called Glory

And I ain't saying 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

Everybody is wondering what and where

They all came from

Everybody is worrying about

Where they're gonna go

When the whole thing's done

But no one knows for certain

And so it's all the same to me

I think I'll just let the mystery be

I think I'll just let the mystery be

I think I'll just let the mystery be
