Reflections - Michael McDonald

Through the mirror of my mind

Time after time

I see reflections of you and me

Reflections of the way life used to be

Reflections of the love you took from me

Oh, I’m all alone now, no love to shield me

Trapped in a world that’s a distorted reality

Happiness you took from me

And left me alone with only memories

Through the mirror of my mind

Through the tears that I’m cryin'

Reflects the hurt I can’t control

'Cause although you’ve gone, I keep holding on

To the happy time, ooh, when you were mine

As I peer through the window of lost time

Looking over my yesterdays

And all the love I gave all in vain

(All the love) All the love that I’ve wasted

(All the tears) All the tears that I’ve tasted

(All in me) All in me

Through the hollow of my tears

I see a dream that’s lost

From the hurt that you have caused

Everywhere I turn

Seems like everything I see

Reflects the love that used to be

In you I put, oh, my faith and trust

Right before my eyes

My world has turned to dust

After all these nights

I sat alone and wept

Just a handful of promises

Are all that’s left of lovin' you

Reflections of the way life used to be

Reflections of the love you took from me

In you I put

All my faith and trust

Right before my eyes

My world has turned to dust
