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   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
