What do you call a mystery that’s unnameable?
How do you solve a case without a clue?
Or explain the unexplainable?
Talking about the secret you
And where do you find the strength to face the day ahead?
Taking that day in stride the way you do
In the game of life, you’re way ahead
There’s something inside the secret you
Don’t even know what makes you so exceptional
Where did you go to find the beat of your drum?
How’d you ever get so unconventional, so sensual?
And where’d it come from?
Where’d you learn to play life like a symphony
While I’m just doing my best to stay in tune?
Will I ever solve the mystery?
It’s hidden inside the secret you
Did you come from some remote, exotic land
Where they learn of love and harmony?
How’d you get to be? I need to understand
Wanna be your man, but I can’t help asking
How’d you learn to read me like a paperback?
And figure me out before the book was through?
Thought I knew you, but I take it back
I got to beyond the secret you
I’m not sure I know what you’re supposed to be
And dwelling on, it’s a little confusing too
But I know that when you’re close to me
I wanna be part of the secret you
Only know that when you’re close to me
Just let me be part of the secret you
