I'm Mystified

i don't know you but i'd like to introduce myself
i got a car out in the street
let's run away where no one will remind us of the good of our health
what are your plans for next week?
 
do you believe that there's a God, if so what the hell's he up to?
i need an explanation to survive
if you can give me answer to questions like "what the hell am i gonna do?"
then you and i might just stay alive
 
and i'm mystified
and i never lie
and i wouldn't try to
take your money, take your self respect
never touch you, i won't break your neck
i'll believe you when you say that you love me
 
there's always someone else you can blame for the state of things
and everyone wants to change the world
but how can i and how can you believe that only the two of us could
turn this ugly rock into a pearl
 
and i'm mystified
and i'd never lie
and i wouldn't try to
ease your sorrow, take the pain away
give you tomorrow before today
i'll believe you when you say that you love me
 
but when you're thrown out of the nest do you learn to fly or fall
i've got 15 seconds to work it out either way
and you find someone who's got something that matches all the card's you're holding
no words can express what you'd like to say
 
and i'm mystified
and i never lie
and i wouldn't try to
take your money, take your self respect
never touch you, i won't break your neck
i'll believe you when you say that you love me
 
ease your sorrow, take the pain away
give you tomorrow before today
i'll believe you when you say that you love me
 
and i'm petrified
and i wouldn't lie
and i'll always try to
give you my heart throw my mind in too
dedicate my intellect to you
and i'll believe you when you say that you love me
