Mysterious Life
We're moving around, dancing the rhythm of life
Time
Mysterious Time
We're counting the hours and days to the end of all time
We are feeling a change
And we don't know why
Choose one direction
Just one for a time
Don't say I'm thinking too much if you see what's behind
And these are mysterious times
Mysterious times
No trick of the mind
For this moment I feel
Like we live in mysterious times
If you see what's behind
These are mysterious times
Soul
I feel my soul
For this moment nobody can stop me from flying so high
Real
Nothing is real
In a world of illusion you only see what you feel
We are feeling a change
And we don't know why
Choose one direction
Just one for a time
Don't say I'm thinking too much if you see what's behind
And these are mysterious times
Mysterious times
No trick of the mind
For this moment I feel
Like we live in mysterious times
If you see what's behind
These are mysterious times
If you see what's behind
These are mysterious times
Mysterious Times
