Mystery Lyrics


(Handed down and made by hand)Each time you pull down the driveway
Wasn't sure when I would see you again?
Yours was a twisted blind sided highway
No matter which road you took thenOh, you set up your place in my thoughts
Moved in and made my thinking crowded
Now we're out in the back with the barking dogs
My heart the red sun, your heart the moon cloudedI could go crazy on a night like tonight
Summer's beginning to give up her fight
And every thought's a possibility
And the voices are heard but nothing is seen
Why do you spend this time with me
Maybe an equal mystery?So what is love then? Is it dictated or chosen?
(Handed down and made by hand)
Does it sing like the hymns of a thousand years
Or is it just pop emotion?
(Handed down and made by hand)And if it ever was there and it left
Does it mean it was never true?
And to exist it must elude

(And to exist)
Is that why I think these things of youI could go crazy on a night like tonight
(A night like tonight)
Summer's beginning to give up her fight
(Yoh, yoh, yoh)
Every thought's a possibility
And the voices are heard but nothing is seen
Why do you spend this time with me
Maybe an equal mystery?But you like the taste of danger
It shines like sugar on your lips
You like to stand in the line of fire
(Stand in fire)
Just to show you can shoot straight from your hipThere must be a thousand things you would die for
I can hardly think of two
But not everything is better spoken aloud
Not when I'm talkin' to youOh, the pirate gets the ship and the girl tonight
Breaks a bottle to christen her
(Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh)
Basking in the exploits of her thief
She's a very good listenerMaybe that's all that we need
Is to meet in the middle of impossibility
We're standing at opposite poles
Equal partners in a mystery
(Handed down and made by hand)
We're standing at opposite poles
Equal partners in a mystery

The Indigo Girls are Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. They met on the playground in grammar school in Decatur, Georgia, USA, and have been playing together since high school.

Their first release in 1985 was a seven-inch single named "Crazy Game", with the B-side "Everybody's Waiting (for Someone to Come Home)". That same year, the Indigo Girls released a six-track Extended play album named "Indigo Girls", and in 1987 released their first full-length album, Strange Fire, recorded at John Keane Studio in Athens, Georgia, and including "Crazy Game". With this release, they secured the services of Russell Carter, who remains their manager to the present; they had first approached him when the EP album was released, but he told them their songs were "immature" and they were not likely to get a record deal.

They were signed to Epic Records in 1989 and won the Grammy for best contemporary folk album later that year (for their self titled release) Some of their hit songs include "Galileo," "Closer to Fine," and "Shame on You."

Aside from being musicians, Ray and Saliers are activists, constantly supporting causes like gun control, women's rights, Native American rights, environmental protection, the abolition of the death penalty, and as lesbians themselves, LGBT rights. They constantly devote their time and money to such causes, often playing benefit concerts.

Ray and Saliers both have side projects. Ray owns and founded Daemon Records, an independent label based in Decatur. She also has a career as a solo artist, and has released two albums thus far. Saliers is the part owner of Watershed, a restaurant and wine bar in Decatur.

Together, the Indigo Girls are constantly touring. Their new album, Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, was released March 24, 2009.
