Lynch and Badal...
[Verse 1]
Sometimes a wind blows
And you and I
Float
In love
And kiss forever
In a darkness
And the mysteries of love
Come clear
And dance
In light
In you
In me
And show
That we
Are love
[Interlude]
[Verse 2]
Sometimes a wind blows
And the mysteries of love
Come clear

Mysteries of Love was produced by Angelo Badalamenti & David Lynch.
When Angelo Badalamenti asked David Lynch what he wanted the track to sound like, Lynch replied:
Oh, just make it like the wind, Angelo. It should be a song that floats on the sea of time. Make it cosmic!
