Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
I look so nice on you
Is that all I was to you?
A pretty face with a name?
Oh, there's some things you can't explain
[Verse 2]
How you went away
I hope you, you will find that special girl
And you make her shine
Gave you heart and soul
All you did was play a role
Baby boy, now you are gone
[Verse 3]
Oh, Mystic Man, tell me who are you today?
Oh, Mystic Man
Do they know they're all being played?
Oh, Mystic Man
Baby, tell me what is this?
I'm out the door, I can't take no more of your (Shh...)
