Verse 1 You came in quiet like the rain, A shadow dancing on the train, With winter eyes and summer skin, I never knew what world you lived in. You said my name like it was glass, Like something beautiful would pass, And every streetlight seemed to know, That I was close to letting go. Pre-Chorus But you were smoke against the morning, A song I almost knew, And I was reaching for the warning, But all I saw was you. Chorus Oh mysterious girl, Where did you go when the stars fell down? I searched every corner of this broken town. You left me with a heart full of thunder and pearl, Oh mysterious girl. And I still see your face In the blue of the dawn and the London rain, In the back of my mind where you still remain. You were fire, you were ice, you were out of this world, My mysterious girl. Verse 2 You wore your secrets like a coat, Left little words in every note, A half-smile hiding something deep, A dream I couldn’t ever keep. We danced beneath a dying moon, You said, “Don’t love me, not too soon,” But I was already lost in light, A satellite with no sky. Pre-Chorus And maybe love is just a doorway, Some walk through and some disappear, You were standing in the hallway, Then you were never here. Chorus Oh mysterious girl, Where did you go when the stars fell down? I searched every corner of this broken town. You left me with a heart full of thunder and pearl, Oh mysterious girl. And I still hear your voice In the rush of the cars and the midnight trains, In the silence that follows the heavy rain. You were truth, you were lies, you were diamonds and dirt, My mysterious girl. Bridge Maybe you were never mine, Just a comet passing by, Just a colour in the dark, Just a match against my heart. And if you’re somewhere out there now, With your head above the clouds, Do you ever think of me, Or was I just another dream? Final Chorus Oh mysterious girl, I still look up when the lights go low, Still chase your ghost where the night winds blow. You left me with a love that could shatter the world, Oh mysterious girl. And I’ll carry your name Like a song that I never could quite let die, Like a star that burned out but stayed in the sky. You were hope, you were hurt, you were heaven unfurled, My mysterious girl. Outro You came in quiet like the rain, And nothing ever felt the same.
