Song title:
Elvis Costello - She Handed Me A Mirror
Edit By:
216.73.216.138
She handed me a mirror That she had gazed upon The glass still held an image The glass still held an image But it was of a man I turned from the reflection To see who it might be Is that poor vanity Quite how she pictures me? She handed me a mirror Rather than tell me "no" She let slip a handkerchief Gentle laughter flowed Just as her lips bestowed A dashing word like "brother" The crushing word like "friend" If there was no beginning How could this be the end? She handed me a mirror So I could recognise The distance from my heart to hers The distance from my heart to hers The pity in her eyes She liked my pretty story I thanked her for her song And then I wrote a tale not very long to tell "You are much more than pretty. You are beautiful." She handed me mirror But I saw her instead She handed me a mirror She handed me a mirror And that is all she did...
