lyrics

she was far too young to be wearing a black veil
she wanted to rip it off but she caught the lord's stare
grandfather sat, put a hand upon her knee
said, "darling isabelle, one day you will see
the lord works in mysterious ways
you just have to trust, believe, and pray"

she left the wake. she wanted to be alone
walked down the streets they once both had known
each passing tree redolent of his face
each passing thought a reflection on his grace

she saw the train station, a train leaving soon
so she hopped aboard, she didn't care where it was going to

they said, "he's in a better place"
she wished they hadn't had to say anything
they asked, "if she needed anything?"
she wished they hadn't had to ask anything

and she road that mystery train
taking her away
out to somewhere
away from this pain

they said, "he's in a better place"
she wished they hadn't had to say anything
they asked, "if she needed anything?"
she wished they hadn't had to ask anything

the lord works in mysterious ways
you just have to trust, believe, and pray
