Reflections Songtext

von Luther Vandross

Through the mirror of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me

Reflectons of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me

I'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in 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 these tears that I'm cryin'
Reflects the hurt I can't control

'Cause although you're gone
I keep holdin' on
To the happy times
Ooh when you were mine

As I peer out through the window
Of lost time
Looking over my yesterday
And all this love I gave all in vain

(all the love) All the love I've wasted
(all those tears) All the tears that I've tasted
(ooh, ooh) All in vain
(all in vain, 'til nothin' remains)

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
All my faith and trust
And right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust

After all those nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a hand full 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
