WHITFORD / ST. HOLMES
"Mystery Girl"
(Brad Whitford)

You've got me running
Every single night
There's no explaining
Well, it's wrong or right
Fever's burning
Deep inside my soul
I'm sort of scared
That I'll let you go

Where have you been
All these lonely nights
People say
You ain't doing me right
Suzanne, you've got me
In the shadows of night
Come on, honey
Won't you show me the light

I'm going downtown
Where I know I can score
Hot streets
Full of johns and whores
I thought of leaving
But I can't resist
Something about you
Turns my head to bliss
I'm going downtown
Where I know I can score
Hot streets
Full of johns and whores
I gotta find a place
To lay my head

Suzanne, you're just a mystery girl
In your own little mystery world
You tell me things I know ain't true
But I always wonder

You play a game that I just can't see
If you'd only listen to me
I can't break her mysterious dreams
She's living in a rip at the seams

Suzanne, the games you play
I thought were true
Whatever happened to the rules
She plays tricks I don't understand
I'll never be a mystery man

I'm going downtown
Where I know I can score
Hot streets
Full of johns and whores
I thought of leaving
But I can't resist
Something about you
Turns my head to bliss
I'm going downtown
Where I know I can score
Hot streets
Full of johns and whores
I gotta find a place
To lay my head

Going there
Lay my head

Suzanne, you're just a mystery girl
In your own little mystery world
Suzanne, you're just a mystery girl
In your own little mystery world

Suzanne, you're just a mystery girl
In your own little mystery world
You tell me things I know ain't true
But I always wonder
