She won't let me buy her jewelry She don't want things that she can keep She wears wildflowers in her hair Then throws them in the sea She's the beginning and the end of me She's a mystery My most beautiful regret I will never understand her She's a mystery The only promise I can keep Even in my dreams she ruins me I still don't know what to call her She says that words don't mean a thing She changes her name every day And lies all the time I feel lucky to call her mine She's a mystery My most beautiful regret I will never understand her She's a mystery The only promise I can keep Even in my dreams she ruins me She's anything in the world That you cannot explain But when she throws me a smile It's fire in the rain She's a mystery My most beautiful regret 'Cause she's a mystery The only promise I can keep Even in my dreams she ruins me She's a mystery There's no defense It's innocence But she won't let you see 'Cause she's a mystery
