Reflections

Reflections... Reflections... Over twenty years, I turn the key alone, Another man's gone silent on my phone. Some men decide my worth with just one glance, But I won't hide myself to stand a chance. I still believe somebody might stay, But not if I must give myself away. Reflections, reflections, now I see, The only man who rescued me. They see my face; I see what it cost To build a life from everything I lost. Reflections, Reflections, Still soft, Still strong. I lost my mother, then my grandma too, I wish I could tell them what I've been through. When life fell apart, the friends I thought would stay Went quiet and then slowly slipped away. No one was there when I was afraid, So I became the one who stayed. Reflections, reflections, now I see, The only man who rescued me. They see my face; I see what it cost To build a life from everything I lost. Reflections, Reflections, Still soft, Still strong. Each month I pay old debts from years gone by, But what I've built is mine, and so am I. Some nights I miss a love I've never known, And even strength can't make me less alone. Reflections, reflections, now I see, The only man who rescued me. Still here, still hoping, knowing what it cost To build a life from everything I lost. Reflections, Reflections, Still soft, Still strong. Reflections, Reflections, Still soft, Still strong.
