Sitting here tonite listening to Roy Orbison. The album we didn't get to hear until after he passed on.

The best stuff on the album he didn't write. But without his voice -- that voice! -- it wouldn't be the same.

And for some reason, this one is sticking in my mind.

To my wife .....


Darkness falls and she will take me by the hand
Take me to some twilight land
Where all the love is grey
Where I can't find my way
Without her as my guide

Night falls I'm cast beneath her spell
Daylight comes our heaven turns to hell
Am I left to burn, and burn eternally?
She's a mystery to me

She's a mystery girl
She's a mystery girl

In the night of love
Words tangle in her hair
Words tend to disappear
A love so sharp it cut
Like a switchblade to my heart
Words tearing me apart

She tears again my bleeding heart
I want to run
She's pulling me apart

Fallen angel cries
And I just look away
She's a mystery to me

She's a mystery girl.....

Haunted by her sight
It's the darkness in her eyes
That so intrigues me
But if my love is blind
Then I don't want to see
She's a mystery to me.

Night falls, I'm cast beneath her spell
Daylight comes, our heaven turns to hell
Am I left to burn, and burn eternally?
She's a mystery to me

She's a mystery girl.....
