Mysteries (1) - Beth Gibbons, The Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra & Krzysztof Penderecki

Why is there time? Why is there space? Why are there dogs and cats and trees and the human race? And why am I here and not over there? Oh why, oh why? And why are there nuns? And why do they pray? And where do we go when we pass away? And why, when I ask my Dad does he say - Go ask your Mom or just go away? And OK, I'll go away But they won't go away Tomorrow I'll find out all I should know I don't even know what I don't even know They're hanging 'round and around and 'round and 'round Tomorrow I'll find out all I should know I don't even know what I don't even know They're hanging 'round and around and 'round and 'round Why is there you? Why is there me? Why does my Mother kiss my Father occasionally? And why am I sore whenever I'm hit? Oh why, oh why? And why is there France? And why is there Spain? And why am I here and why is there rain? And why when I ask my Dad does he say - Go ask your Mom or just go away? And OK, I'll go away But they won't go away Tomorrow I'll find out all I should know I don't even know what I don't even know They're hanging 'round and around and 'round and 'round Tomorrow I'll find out all I should know I don't even know what I don't even know They're hanging 'round and around and 'round and 'round Why is there time? Why is there space?

Turning now she caught his eye For all he knows he cannot see Pleasures smolder inside Cover seasons that fell from view long ago Blame on your heart But then you know that now What do you do, you hide lies inside Why do you do that, I don't know why How long did I know you for I don't know why you had to go If only you had told her The words to enfold her long ago She took a breath and she never spoke The words tasted like To know she told a matinee There was an odor [Inaudible] anyway But you can take and you can see There's never enough of love for destiny Don't look back from day to day What I noticed wasn't me Strangers, they'll part again They'll never know For all the years they've disguised inside Knowing their years of loss remain How long did I know you for I don't know why you had to go If only you had told her The words to enfold her long ago

Time is but a memory The bitter note unsung running Trying to find salvation From the sorrow that is done For the life of me Will the sorrow rise? For this under Underlies all I see For time is but a memory Beautiful for some Feathered like a majorette In a rose unsaid and done Moments Like a rainbow colored sky How they come and go They come and go but why? For unknown Is our fortune And our fortune won't let go And our faith It will die with the sun It will lie underneath All will see For time is but a memory Beautiful for some Feathered like a majorette In a rose unsaid and done But it's all All for our future And our future won't let go [Incomprehensible]
