Lyrics

I Wanna Be Your Mirror

We despair in the depths of the future
In this neutral life we are used to
Many lives in the eyes of beholders
Ahh, I always thought that you could see

When we see that the present is holding
We are laughter, nothing more to answer
From the depths of today we encounter
Ahh, we shouldn't care of what we see

Carry me back to the bridges of before
If yesterday pretended to be more
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Like it was before

When we see that our years are aligning
Ever blinding fears are expiring
Far away at the edge of horizons
Ahh, like a shadow on the sea

When the bells ring aloud, we awaken
With the mutual sound of devotion
Still we rise from the depths of emotion
Ahh, like a shadow in the sea

Carry me back to the bridges of before
If yesterday pretended to be more
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah
Like it was before

Meant to be, left in between
I wanna be your mirror endlessly
What will be for those who see?
You wanna be my mirror endlessly
Without reflection

Still we all glow dazzlingly wiser
All blind inside of a rumour
And the stars grow lighter with humour
Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

Love is a conquest that we both desire
In knowing this we leave from the passages before
A day will come when we can open the door
And we can live like the rich but pretend to be poor

Meant to be, left in between
I wanna be your mirror endlessly
What will be for those who see?
You wanna be my mirror endlessly
