She’s the ancient longing That i feel beside the ocean When i look across the waters deep and still She’s a new belonging Like some love-inducing potion And i’ll never reach the bottom of this well 'cause she wants to be a mystery And i know i’ve never found her really She wants to be a mystery to me She wants to be a mystery So i wrap my soul around her because She’ll always be a mystery to me She’s a side of god I’ve never seen in my own soul A whisper of the way we ought to be She’s a soft reminder Of the world when it was whole And part of her is just beyond my reach 'cause she wants to be a mystery And i know i’ve never found her really She wants to be a mystery to me She wants to be a mystery So i wrap my soul around her because She’ll always be a mystery to me As timeless as the mountains and the sea The beauty of a lady mystery She wants to be a mystery And i know i’ve never found her really 'cause she wants to be a mystery And i know i’ve never found her really She wants to be a mystery to me She wants to be a mystery So i wrap my soul around her because She’ll always be a mystery to me
