"One of the Mysteries of Life"

(Tom T. Hall)

If I were you I wouldn't waste my time
You can't answer all the questions in your mind
Love is love and you can't make it right
It's one of the mysteries of life.

How can you know love when no one ever knew
It's mother of all happiness and father of the blues
Love puts sunshine in your days then steals your sleep at night
It's one of the mysteries of life.

Maybe you should take it day by day
If you hold love too loosly it will fly away
If you hold love too tightly it will die
It's one of the mysteries of life.

How can you know love when no one ever knew
It's mother of all happiness and father of the blues
Love puts sunshine in your days then steals your sleep at night
It's one of the mysteries of life...
