Sweet Little Mystery

You never tell me where you've been,

Never say where you've been going,

You just smile and change the subject

Like there's something I'm not knowing.

You wear that little silver ring,

Turn it slowly when you talk,

And every time I get too close,

You find another way to walk.

You're a sweet little mystery,

A question I can't leave alone,

Every road I take toward you

Seems to lead me somewhere unknown.

I don't need the answer,

I just need you next to me—

You're my sweet little mystery.

Sometimes you call me after midnight,

Sometimes three days disappear,

But when you whisper,

"I missed you,"

All my doubts just disappear.

Maybe I don't need to know

Every secret that you keep.

Some things lose their magic

When you drag them into the light.

You're a sweet little mystery,

And I don't want you solved,

If loving you means wondering,

Then I'll wonder through it all.

(wonder through it all) (mmm-mmm-hmm)
