the mirror

[Verse 1] Every time I look in the mirror An old man takes my place Lines I don’t remember carving Etched across his face [Chorus] The years have left their markings But they’ve given me their song The mirror shows an old man But he’s the one who’s carried on [Verse 2] I hear the voices of old friends Calling from another place The mirror shows a stranger now But I still know each face [Chorus] The years have left their markings But they’ve given me their song The mirror shows an old man But he’s the one who’s carried on [Bridge] Every scar is a chapter Every wrinkle has a name The mirror just reminds me That nothing stays the same [Chorus – Repeat] The years have left their markings But they’ve given me their song The mirror shows an old man But he’s the one who’s carried on [Outro] Every time I face the mirror I see time staring through An old man and a younger soul Learning how to share the view
