When I Look in the Mirror Songtext
von autolemy

Every night I′d wait for her, just her
Every night just for her eyes, those eyes - they'd burn
Every time she′d look my way, oh... I wish she'd stay
So I could learn more than her name, oh her name

As days went by we'd feel alive, now she′s mine
But as years went by I caught her in a lie

Don′t you come any nearer
You pretended to care, but all you want to do is play
I thought that I had a winner
But all that you do is criticize me every day
Wish I hadn't gone near you
You were fooling around; you thought that you could find a way
And when I look in the mirror
I know I′ve been a fool to think that you will ever change

You never change, I gave you everything
You don't deserve, to get anything... from me


I-wish-you-could-see what I can see
You′ve-had-all and more from me, I got to make it work
I-had-dreams-once upon a time
I-have-to-work it double time

I close my eyes, and days go by
I get the job, I never liked
I don't realise, misread the signs, that maybe I′m not the only guy
The only guy
The only guy

Don't you come any nearer
You pretended to care, but all you want to do is play
I thought that I had a winner
But all that you do is criticize me every day
Wish I hadn't gone near you
You were fooling around; you thought that you could find a way
But when I look in the mirror
I know I′ve been a fool to think that you will ever change

You never change, I gave you everything
You don′t deserve, to get anything... from me
You never change, I gave you everything
You don't deserve, to get anything... from me
