Mystery to Me
Verse 1:
He was born on an island, in an ocean of fog,
Longside beaches with driftwood and dogs.
Once a mild child, hard to believe,
Eldest son of Adam and Eve.
Child of the Vineyard, grandson of the Harts,
Sailed his dinghy, always first to the start.
Chorus:
You could be cuddly that's not hard to see,
That you have sailed off is hard to believe.
Your name was Dudley, the King of the sea,
Where you have gone to's a mystery to me.
Verse: 2
Left for the mainland, tall and tan,
Wore nantucket reds, happy as a clam.
Raced roun' in Maxis, ho'pin to get paid,
Drank another beer and tried to get laid.
Child of the Vineyard, bottle in hand,
school'ins over, whats your game plan?
Chorus:
You could be cuddly that's not hard to see,
That you have sailed off is hard to believe.
Your name was Dudley, the King of the sea,
Where you have gone to's a mystery to me.
Bridge:
I can hear you, whisper my name, my tears fall like gentle rain
You're an angel, you're a star, for me you'll never be far.
I can feel you, I know you're near, thats why I have no fear!
You're an angel, you're a star, for me you'll never ever be far.
Verse: 3
Wife and child were, heart full of pain, really is no need to explain.
World was chang'in, you couldn't see, what is wrong with the way it used to be?
Child of the vineyard, home at last, wander'ins over, make peace with the past.
Race roun' the buoys, fly your spinnaker high,
Days at sea were great with you and I.
Chorus:
You could be cuddly that's not hard to see,
That you have sailed off is hard to believe.
Your name was Dudley, the King of the sea,
Where you have gone to's a mystery to me.
