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      CHORUS      As timeless as the mountains and the sea   The beauty of a lady mystery      CHORUS      She wants to be a mystery, she wants to be a mystery   She wants to be a mystery to me   She’ll always be a mystery, she’ll always be a mystery   She’ll always be a mystery to me
