You could stay a while longer
We could stay up and talk about
Last summer
We could go down to the water
Watch the sunset going under
It's not that I'm a stranger
To lonely moments
I've had my share of those
Please don't go
Please don't leave me alone
A mirror's so much harder to hold
I could try and point the finger
But the glass points in my direction
Sure, you got your sharp edges
But my wounds are from my own
Reflection
You've got nothing I could ever hold
Against you
I got fatal flaws to call my own
Please don't go, please don't leave me
Alone
A mirror's so much harder to hold
I met a man who's looking for
Perfection
Said he never met a girl who's
Good enough
His eyes are getting old
Like they'd love to love again
Such a lonely man
Such a lonely man
I see him in my reflection
Taking steps towards me these days
So I hold you that much closer
And pray we don't throw this
Away
It's not that
I'm a man
Who couldn't love you
I know what these arms are for
Please don't go
Please don't leave me alone
A mirror is so much harder to hold
A mirror is so much harder to hold
Please don't go
Please don't leave me cold
A mirror is so much harder to hold
