Reflections Songtext

von The Temptations

Baby
Listen baby

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

I'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in a world of 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 crying
Reflects a hurt I can't control

'Cause although you're gone
I keep holdin' on to those happy times
Oh, when you were mine

Oh and I peer through the window of lost time
Lookin' 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 vain

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

Oh, into you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust

Oh, after all the nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a handful 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

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

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

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

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

I've got reflections of love
That used to be
I've got reflections of love
That won't set me free
I've got reflections baby

You took my world to dust
Yes you did, yeah
