How Much Mystery - Josh Tillman

Despite the rain

You went out of your way

«No one should be alone on a day like this»

You said to me when my friend sat down

On the last day of my life

Sure felt like the last day of my life

How much mystery does one man need?

How much would it trade for one sure thing?

I know bigger prices have been paid

But better men have passed this way

It’s not a lot to ask

Sometimes it feels like a lot to ask
