My Mirror Lyrics & Tabs by Tina Dickow
My Mirror
guitar chords lyrics
When I feel your eyes on me I fall to my knees
And I wait for your look to judge and define me
I'm just a thin shell breaking in your palm
Starving for substance, identity
I am not afraid of this act of mutual creation
I take from you as you take from me
Like nervous hands reaching out for each other
Your eyes can tell no lies, I am what you see
You're my mirror
Everything I do I see in you
You're my mirror
In your eyes I hide
You're my mirror
What you see is what you're giving me
You're my mirror
You're my mirror
What you see is what you're giving me
You're my mirror
In your eyes
As I turn around to leave, still in your spell
I catch a glimpse of my reflection in the window by your bed
What an odd surprise to bump into myself like this
I can see right through myself to the flowers on your lawn
And the empty space before me swallows everything you give
I turn back to your look to find peace in your eyes
I'm nothing without you, I'm hollow without you
You're my mirror
Everything I do I see in you
You're my mirror
In your eyes I hide
You're my mirror
What you see is what you're giving me
You're my mirror
It's in your eyes
I find in his look an insecurity childishly submissive
I say foolish things I do strange things for attention
He finds within me some kind of unfamiliar hardness
He sees both the child and the cynic
Everyhing I hold inside of me
Everything I'm hoping I can be
You're my mirror
Everything I do I see in you
You're my mirror
In your eyes I hide
You're my mirror
What you see is what you're giving me
You're my mirror
It's in your eyes
