Every Time I Look In Thee Mirror
Edwin R Tanguma 1966 (CA)
Every Time I Look In Thee Mirror
Every time I look in the mirror
I'm afraid of what I see
The image which is reflecting back
Bears no resemblance of me
Could it be my subconscious mind
Running along on its course
Trying to find the answers to
Some uncontrollable force
The truth of the matter is simple
When I get down to the fact
Every time I look in thee mirror
My heart knows it's you I lack
