INXS – Mystify Lyrics

INXS · Kick
Rock

All veils and misty
Streets of blue
Almond looks that
Chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
Leavin' broken
Hearts behind

Mystify
You mystify me

I need perfection
Some twisted collection
It tangles me
To keep me alive
In all that exists
None has your beauty
I see your face
And I will survive

Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
You mystify me

Eternally wild with the power
To make every moment come alive
All those stars that shine above you
And they kiss you every night

All veils and
Misty streets of blue
Almond looks that
That chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
And we're leavin' broken hearts
Behind

Mystify
Mystify me

All veils and misty
Streets of blue
Almond looks that
They chill divine
Some silken moment
Goes on forever
Leavin' broken
Hearts behind

Mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify me

Eternally wild with the power
To make every moment alive
All those stars that shine upon ya
And they kiss you every night

Cannot mystify
Mystify me
Mystify
Mystify
