You're not sure but she makes you think
She can't see you but from afar it’s a bit puzzling
When you haven't the chance and you almost believe
She'd rather be invisible for the sake of mystery
She'll draw you close with a glance, you don't yet sense
Her flighty fence at your approach she'll draw the gate
Time and time again until you begin to think
There's not much there behind her thoughtless wait
She'll show you everything from across the room
But her face is unpainted color in the nearness of ligh
When you finally turn, you'll finally learn, to look away
The smile you'll miss, the flicker of mischief in her eye
Is her greatest secret, the one that will pull in another
And all too soon he'll begin to think he's just as far
