Reflections

(album: Funny How Sweet Co-Co Can Be - 1971)

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 crying
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 loving 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
