ÄáÅ·Ne-Yo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I must be honest with you babe
(just gotta be honest)
I love to watch the faces that you make (when we make love oh girl)
But when I'm behind you holding your hips and you close your eyes and bite your lips

I can see you so might I suggest a change
Now mama please don't take me strange for what I'm about to say
(please don't take me strange)
If you know anything bout me by now
I'm a freak just follow my lead

Baby I love making love in front of a mirror (in front of a mirror)
So that that I can watch you enjoying me (baby tonight)
Baby tonight lets try in front of a mirror (in front of a mirror)
Watching ourselves make love
Girl why don't we

And I'm a keep your chin up please watch me do the...nasty
I like it when you make your moves fast
Mami if I pull your head back
'Cause I want you to see that we look so good together

I understand that your not ready for me and my directory
Your day but featuring me starring you
Baby that's okay with me
I'm the systems next best thing

Baby I love making love in front of a mirror (in front of a mirror)
So that that I can watch you enjoying me (baby tonight)
Baby tonight lets try in front of a mirror (in front of a mirror)
Watching ourselves make love
Girl why don't we

I see you can you see me watching you loving it [Repeat: x8]

Baby I love making love in front of a mirror (in front of a mirror)
So that that I can watch you enjoying me (baby tonight)
Baby tonight lets try in front of a mirror (in front of a mirror)
Watching ourselves make love
Girl why don't we

Can we make love in front of a mirror [Repeat until fade]

Overall Meaning

In the song "Mirror" by Ne-Yo, the narrative voice expresses his love for watching his partner during sex, especially when she makes certain facial expressions. He suggests trying something new by making love in front of a mirror so that they can enjoy watching themselves. The singer asks his partner to trust him as he is a "freak" and then proceeds to describe some of the things he would like to do, such as pulling her head back so that they can both see themselves in the mirror. He acknowledges that his partner may not be ready for this yet but insists that it's okay and that they can try it at their own pace.


On a deeper level, the song may be interpreted as a commentary on the importance of self-reflection and acceptance. By watching themselves in the mirror, the couple may be able to see their own flaws and imperfections, which may ultimately lead to a greater sense of self-love and self-acceptance.

Aren't you somethin' to admire
Cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
And I can't help but notice
You reflect in this heart of mine
If you ever feel alone and
The glare makes me hard to find
Just know that I'm always
Parallel on the other side

Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass
I'm here tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong

I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making
Two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

Aren't you somethin', an original
Cause it doesn't seem really as simple
And I can't help but stare, cause
I see truth somewhere in your eyes
I can't ever change without you
You reflect me, I love that about you
And if I could, I
Would look at us all the time

Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass
I'm here tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong

I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out

You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making
Two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

Yesterday is history
Tomorrow's a mystery
I can see you lookin' back at me
Keep your eyes on me
Baby, keep your eyes on me

I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The vacancy that sat in my heart
Is a space that now you hold
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along

It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making
Two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me



Baby, you're the inspiration for this precious song
And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone
And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home
Just to let you know, you are



Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
You're my reflection and all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do

Aren't you something to admire, 'cause your shine is something like a mirror

Coming back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside of me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making two reflections into one
'Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

Aren't you something, an original, 'cause it doesn't seem merely assembled
And I can't help but stare 'cause I see truth somewhere in your eyes
Ooh I can't ever change without you, you reflect me, I love that about you
And if I could, I would look at us all the time

'Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the glass, I'm here trying to pull you through
You just gotta be strong

'Cause I don't wanna lose you now

Keep your eyes on me
Baby, keep your eyes on me
