[ Featuring Jonathan Richman, the Modern Lovers ]
Let's make this a slow dance, ladies' choice
See now, it's eight o'clock in Boston
And Fileen's has just locked up
It's so good to see the sky clear up this way
There's the stars, we haven't lost 'em
It's time to fly into life's mystery
It's time to go somewhere we've never seen
It's time to fly into life's mystery
Fly into the mystery
Well, it's eight o'clock in Boston suburbs too
And some boyfriend, he's lost his girlfriend
Funny now, she was here just a minute ago
She must have gone away, where'd she go?
She must have gone to fly into life's mystery
She goes no more to the places she used to be
She goes to fly now into life's mystery
Look at her go into the mystery
Now it's eight o'clock in Boston
And Fileen there has just locked up for the night
But it's clear sky and the stars shine
I'm lookin' right up at them
Isn't it time for us to fly into life's mystery?
Time to go somewhere we've never seen
Fly into life's mystery
Fly into the mystery
