MIRROR TALK

I looked into the mirror, and wondered "Who is that?"
Wondered if maybe they would like to have a little chat.
I was feeling out of touch with someone I once knew.
That person in the mirror, looked the same way too.

When did it all begin - the drifting away ?
Where did they all go - the dreams of yesterday ?
Why did it disappear - the wonder in the eye ?
Why am I standing here, asking when, and where, and why ?

(Background-soft- Choral response)
We've drifted from our innocence.
Dreams are growing things.
The wonder has become our pulse.
The questions - living brings.


The person in the mirror says, "I can understand.
Change is hard for all of us. I'm speaking as a friend.
Life gives a little, takes a little, then one day we find,
what we 'will be' is still ahead. What we 'thought'we were's behind.

When did it all begin - we ask along the way.
Where did all the dreams go - we wonder day by day.
Why do I feel so strange - we ask uncertainly.
It's the way we grow and change -
into what we yet will be."

(Background-soft- Choral response)
We've drifted from our innocence.
Dreams are growing things.
The wonder has become our pulse.
The questions - living brings.
