I tried takin' a picture of you, but when I look at it nothing comes through.
Sometimes I wonder if you're just a ghost,and I wonder who's haunting who most(?)
I tried describing you to all my friends, but they just told me to polish my lens.
You're a sweet, generous my sweetheart, but I don't even know where to start.
[Refrão]
Em F
Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
G C C/B
And Stephen Hawking can't explain you
Am Dm
Rosetta Stone could not translate you
G C C/B
I'm at a loss for words. I'm at a loss for words
Em F
I couldn't put it in a novel
G C C/B
I wrote a page, but it was awful
Am Dm
Now I just wanna sing old Gospel
G C
I'm at a loss for words. I'm at a loss for words.

I looked you up on ancestry.com, there was no record of dad or of mom.
It's like you fell straight out of the sky, and left the scholars to figure out why.
I like to think that I know quite a lot, but with you it feels like I forgot.
I wish that I could explain who you are, but when I try to I never get far.
