B G A
[Verse 1]
A Bm Abm
When I feel your eyes on me I fall to my knees
G A
And I wait for your look to judge and define me
Bm B
I'm just a thin shell breaking in your palm
G A
Starving for substance, identity
A Bm Abm
I am not afraid of this act of mutual creation
G A
I take from you as you take from me
Bm Abm
Like nervous hands reaching out for each other
G A
Your eyes can tell no lies, I am what you see
[Chorus]
Bm
You're my mirror
A
Everything I do I see in you
G
You're my mirror
A
In your eyes I hide
Bm
You're my mirror
A
What you see is what you're giving me
G
You're my mirror
A
In your eyes
[Verse 2]
A Bm Abm
As I turn around to leave, I’m still in your spell
G A
I catch a glimpse of my reflection in the window by your bed
Bm Abm G
What an odd surprise to bump into myself like that…Uhmm
A Bm Abm
I can see right through myself to the flowers on your lawn
G A
And the empty space before me swallows everything you give
Bm Abm
I turn back to your look to find peace in your eyes
G B A
I'm nothing without you, I'm hollow without you
[Chorus]
Bm
You're my mirror
A
Everything I do I see in you
G
You're my mirror
A
In your eyes I hide
Bm
You're my mirror
A
What you see is what you're giving me
G
You're my mirror
A
In your eyes
[Verse 3]
G Gbm G
I find in his look an insecurity childishly submissive
Gbm G
I say foolish things I do strange things for attention
Gbm
He finds within me some kind of unfamiliar hardness
G A
He sees both the child and the cynic
E B A
Everyhing I hold inside of me
Bm E
Everything I'm hoping I can be
[Chorus]
Gbm Bm
You're my mirror
A
Everything I do I see in you
G
You're my mirror
A
In your eyes I hide
Bm
You're my mirror
A
What you see is what you're giving me
G
You're my mirror
A
It's in your eyes
Bm
You're my mirror
