Only Mystery

Show me what's been on your mind

Say, "It's only mystery"

The only lines you ever read

So I'm leaning in

To the pages I don't have on you

Taking my time, letting you do the things you do

When time's the only thing that I don't have

Who made sure of that?

Thought we'd find it hard to talk

You with both your eyes closed

Asking where you were

In the years I called our backyard home

Lost my tooth sitting in bed alone

Weep for the woman I've become

It's all the good I've ever done

By you

Was I good enough?

Did I try to make the lyrics say too much?

Did I swallow it before you'd filled your cup?

Did I measure it

The way you would measure it?

Am I measured enough?

So I won't have to lie

When you're gone
