AMERICA - MIRROR TO MIRROR lyrics

rate me

Written by Gerry Beckley, ©1994

Found on Hourglass.

I haven't seen forever

Don't even know her name

I call on dreams and other schemes

To try and win that game

Now that it's over, darling

Look into my eyes

Seein' your own reflection

Much to your surprise

We're seein' mirror to mirror

Face to face

We look but we cannot see

Mirror to mirror

Seems to trace

What happened to you and me

And though we tried in earnest

The distant silence yells

We call on wings and other things

To try and break that spell

Now that it's over, darling

Truth in the common cause

We stare at our own indifference

By seeing the other's flaws

We're seein' mirror to mirror

Face to face

We look but we cannot see

Mirror to mirror

Seems to trace

What happened to you and me

Oh, mirror to mirror, mirror to mirror

Mirror to mirror, what's come over me

As we look inside, there's nowhere to turn

There's nowhere to hide

Now that it's over, darling

Look into my eyes

Seein' your own reflection

Much to your surprise

We're seein' mirror to mirror

Face to face

We look but we cannot see

Mirror to mirror

Seems to trace

What happened to you and me

Oh, mirror to mirror, mirror to mirror

Mirror to mirror, what's come over me

Mirror to mirror, mirror to mirror

Mirror to mirror, what's come over me
