Let The Mystery Be Lyrics - 10,000 Maniacs

Everybody's wonderin' what and where 

They all came from 

Everybody's worryin' 'bout 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 comin' back in a garden 

Bunch of carrots and little sweet peas 

I think I'll just let the mystery be 

Everybody's wonderin' what and where 

They all came from 

Everybody's worryin' 'bout 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 they're goin' 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
