Really Mystified

He will break your heart, if you go with him
Tear it all apart, and that would be a sin
I'm really mystified, I even sat right down and cried

I'm the one that needs you, I love you constantly
Answer me, I need you, I'm waiting patiently
I'm really mystified, I even sat right down and cried

Darling, if I let you go by, I'll be living in a dream of emptiness
The feeling in my heart, my mind and my soul, if you would surely cure my loneliness

He will break your heart, if you go with him
Tear it all apart, and that would be a sin
I'm really mystified, I even sat right down and cried

Darling, if I let you go by, I'll be living in a dream of emptiness
The feeling in my mind, my heart and my soul, if you would quickly cure my loneliness

He will break your heart, if you go with him
Tear it all apart, and that would be a sin
I'm really mystified, I even sat right down and cried

Ooh yeah, mystified
Really mystified
Really mystified
