Greg Brown Let The Mystery Be lyrics

Everybody's wonderin' what and where
They all came from
Everybody's worried about where they're gonna go
When the whole thing's done

But no one knows for certain
So it's all the same to me
I think I'll just let the mystery be

Some say once you're gone, you're gone forever
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 they're comin' back in the garden
Bunch of carrots and little sweet peas
I think I'll just let the mystery be

Some say they're goin' to a place called Glory

And I ain't sayin' that ain't a fact
But I've heard I'm on the road to purgatory
And I don't like the sound of that

Well, I believe in love
And I live my life accordingly
I choose to let the mystery be

Oh, everybody's wonderin' what and where
They all came from
Everybody's worried about where they're gonna go
When the whole thing's done

But no one knows for certain
So it's all the same to me
I think I'll just let the mystery be
