Cold, cold fingers through the cracks in the floor
Don't leave a hole for the mystery wind
Rustling the leaves around your door
Plague and hunger and burning rain
Whistling down from out of this world
Don't know where from, don't know where it goes
It's a cruel wind, screams and moans
It's a cruel wind, screams and moans
Make you say things better left unsaid
To fight for your right when the time gets tough?
Take an honest man away from his girl
Can't you smell it, you can almost feel it
Don't know where from, don't know where it goes
Stir up trouble in a married man's bed
Mystery wind, are you strong enough
And don't leave a hole for the mystery wind
Mystery wind blowing tonight
Mystery wind blowing right through your hearts
The mystery wind
Don't leave a crack for the rain to get in
Don't leave a crack for the rain to get in
From some other time, from some other place
Rustling the leaves around your door
The mystery wind, the mystery wind
Foul your water, and steal your bread
The mystery wind
Too many good men blown away by the mystery wind
Mystery wind, you just can't see it
Wake up things better left for dead
The mystery wind
Lord above how great Thou art
Driving rain, close up tight
Cold, cold fingers through the cracks in the floor
Mystery wind make a fool say grace
