My Stunning Mystery Companion

What with all my expectations long abandoned

And a future I no longer saw my hand in

How I found you is beyond my understanding

My stunning mystery companion

I know that you don't wanna be

Out here forever on this road

Or live among the boxes

Where all my past lives have been stowed

Maybe you're thinking of someplace

With a garden by the sea

Where we could slow down

And you could put a little more work in on me

What with all my expectations long abandoned

My solitary nature notwithstanding

You're the one who pulled me out of that crash landing

My stunning mystery companion

Right now I can't quite remember

The cause of all my tears

I hear you laughing

Somehow the past just disappears

Maybe you were joking when you said

You'd take me for ten years and no more

Maybe you've had the best of me

But you could take another ten years and be sure

What with all my expectations long abandoned

And a life that just gets more and more demanding

There's no doubt that you're the reason I'm still standing

My stunning mystery companion
