lyrics

She Moves Like a Mystery

She moves like a mystery- to places I can't find
Lipstick traces and fingerprints-is what she leaves behind
She disappears in the shadows, and I don't know what to do She leaves me with her perfume scent- and that's my only clue

And I can't read her mind and I cant find the lines
That tell the secrets in her eyes
And every twist and turn, every kiss that burns,
Are wrapped up-in a beautiful disguise
She reads like a movie script-across a silver screen
And she plays it to the camera- when she's staring back at me She speaks like a sonnet- in crafted measured lines
Each word is chosen-with a rhythm and a rhyme
Bridge:
And this old typewriter won't help me turn a phrase
'Been staring at the page so long that the night's turned into day-
I'm so lost and tangled, in her twisted lover's net-but the final chapters-ain't been written yet-
Instrumental
Bridge:
And I can't read her mind and I cant find the lines That tell the secrets in her eyes
And every twist and turn, every kiss that burns, Are wrapped up-in a beautiful disguise
She moves like a mystery- to places I can't find
Lipstick traces and fingerprints-is what she leaves behind She disappears in the shadows, to places I can't see She moves like mystery-a mystery to me (3x)
