This my thoughts I jotted down and tried to make sense... |
| There she sits with her back to me 'Bout to break out of her reverie So caught up in all that she feels She forgets I' m around, around for real. Look how she prattles, guffaws in glee And soon she 'll give in to melancholy She 'll fret and mourn invariably But no she won' t, won' t turn to me. She takes delight in life' s panorama She' s not one to mellow the drama Lost in her world of make - believe Yet I' m the first, the first she' ll leave. She latches on to all that appeals Announces her likes in joyful peals When it' s no longer there for the taking It' s me who mends, mends the aching. And there she stands now facing me Without me, she knows, she' s all but free Still she' ll go on with this fiddle-dee-dee Coz the woman in the mirror mirrors me. |
