Mystery
I sat on the back porch baby and I waited for the sun
I thought you would come back but once again I?m wrong
I said I was sorry lover but you knew that it was a lie
You tell me you?ll pray for me because only God knows why
I only want what I can?t have
When I first met you, you looked at me like a was a prize
And I wanted the answers behind the deep, dark, aching eyes
But now I?m all out of questions and the novelty is worn
But when I see you walking away I just want you to turn
Cause I only want what I can?t have
The mystery and the man
You said it was so simple, but baby I?m not you
So I?ll destroy myself just to keep on getting back at you
I was never really in love, just in love with being in love you said
But these faded yellow memories keep on hanging around my bed
Cause I only want what I can?t have
The mystery and the man
