Richard Noel Marx (born September 16, 1963 in Chicago, Illinois) is an adult contemporary singer and songwriter. He had a string of successful hit singles in the late 1980s and early 1990s, including "Right Here Waiting," "Hazard," and "Hold On to the Nights." Although most of his successful songs were slow ballads like these, many of his songs had an upbeat, classic rock style, such as "Don't Mean Nothing," "Should've Known Better," "Satisfied," and "Wait for the Sunrise." Marx placed himself in the record books by being the first solo artist to have his first seven singles hit the top 5 on the US charts. Marx was born to Dick and Ruth Marx. Marx grew up in a mixed faith household where father was Jewish and his mother was a Christian. His father was a jingle writer for commercials, which is where Marx got his start writing at the tender age of five.

More Than A Mystery Lyrics

Richard Marx

Written and arranged by richard marx
Mesmerized since the day I saw you
Maybe somewhere Ive misplaced my pride
In trying to prove Im on your side
Were two of the many walking wounded
And all I want is to try to be the cure
So well never feel loneliness anymore
I wanna be declared your one and only
Hear you say that Im your destiny
And I want you to be more than a mystery to me
Am I making you feel uneasy
Do you recognize the movie that were in
Every game you swore youd never play you win
Do you want to know the truth about you
Do you even hear the voices in your head
Cant you see Im hanging there by a thread
I wanna feel your gentle arms around me
Wanna know the sweet taste of your kiss
Wanna hear you whisper
Baby, nothings better than this
I wanna be declared your one and only
Hear you say that Im your destiny
And I want you to be more than a mystery to me
The more I reach out to you
The harder you are to find
How could I be so drawn to something so unkind
Do I make you feel uneasy
Am I saying any words you want to hear
Love isnt really love without fear
Chorus
