Real, almost real
I could feel the life flow into my veins
Done, now it's done
I have fallen for the final time I can't get up again

Love's a mystery, I don't understand
Love's supposed to make you glad
Tell me why I feel so bad
Love's a mystery, I don't understand
I won't see you anymore
And if that's what love is for
Then I don't understand

Free, now you're free
You don't need me and you don't want what I give
Baby, here is my heart
Please, help me please
'cause if life is made for hearts in love then how am I to live

Love's a mystery, I don't understand
It's so hard to be alone
When the one you love is gone
Love's a mystery, I don't understand
You won't stay another day
And if that's all you can say
Then I don't understand
Love's a mystery, I don't understand
I won't see you anymore
And if that's what love is for
Then I don't understand
