Remember hallways
You're waiting always
To see behind the door
You've never seen her;
You're going to meet her
The first time's so unsure
She smiles your way through a window
You smile right back, she runs away
You wish little girls would sit still
Just a little bit longer, longer
And she's still a mystery to me
I thought I'd grow up gracefully
I'd understand my woman finally
But the more I see
The more I see there is to see
There is to see
And she's still a mystery to me
She's still a mystery to me
I used to wonder when in thunder
Understandings done
But now I'm grasping
With understanding
Is only part of love
And she's still a mystery to me
I thought I'd grow up gracefully
I'd understand her thoroughly
But she's a mystery to me
