I tried taking a picture of you
But when I look in, nothing comes through
Sometimes I wonder if you're just a ghost
And I wonder what's haunting you most

I tried describing you to all my friends
But they just told me to polish my lens
Your sweet, generous, my sweetheart
I don't even know where to start

Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
Rosetta Stone cannot translate you
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I couldn't put it in a novel
I wrote a page but it was awful
Now I just want to sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words

I looked you up on Ancestry dot 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 can explain who you are
But when I try to I never get far

Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
Rosetta Stone cannot translate you
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I couldn't put it in a novel
I wrote a page but it was awful
Now I just want to sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words

We've come so far
Now here we are
We made it through the night
I know we will
Be strong, cause still
Everything will be alright

Even Da Vinci couldn't paint you
And Steven Hawking can't explain you
Rosetta Stone cannot translate you
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I couldn't put it in a novel
I wrote a page but it was awful
Now I just want to sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a loss for words
I'm at a los for words
