In the mirror of life
What is reflected
Did it go as we planned
Or something unexpected
Touch the glassy surface
Watch the ripples spreading
Does today go to tomorrow
What direction are we heading
Stare into the mirror
What do you see?
Are you really different
Or are you just like me
Does your heart beat faster
Or does it grow cold
Alone with your reflection
And I need someone to hold

I look deep into the mirror
Straight into my eyes
No more pain is hidden there
Only love I can't disguise
I still dream of gentle kisses
And your laughter so divine
To hear you whisper softly
And feel your body next to mine
Heavens in the mirror
In the center of my heart
I know your standing by me
Even though we are apart
