Lyrics

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 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 could not 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 wanna 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 could 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 could not 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 wanna sing your gospel
I'm at a loss for words, I'm at a loss for words
(Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
We've come so far, now here we are
We made it through the night
(Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
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 could not 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 wanna 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 loss for words
(You guys are amazing)
