Life is like a mirror you see
The refection is here for you and me
Only the wise can tell it’s true
The rest of us believe to go on through
Someone is watching from the other side
When I think of that my eyes open wide
Are you for sure it’s your reflection you see
Or is it someone you wish that you could be
The past and the present are here in the glass
The vision you see is not what will pass
No-one is happy with what they see
But all will go on and say it’s just me
Smile when you can and frown if you must
But this is the only one you can trust
Others will lie and say you look good
If you’re ok then you see what you should
Mirrors are here for us all to see
The good and the bad that’s part of me
Someone is watching from the other side
So smile at yourself and so them your pride
