Jackson Browne lyrics : "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 want to 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 and 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
