窈窕美眉(M2M) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Show me what I wanna see
Mirror mirror lie to me
Why don't I like the girl I see
The one who's standing right in front of me
Why don't I think before I speak
I should have listened to that voice inside me
To say the kind of things I said last night
Mirror mirror hanging on the wall
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all
Mirror mirror I wish you could lie to me
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me
Mirror mirror lie to me
Show me what I wanna see
Mirror mirror lie to me
Show me what I wanna see
Why did I let you walk away
When all I had to do was say I'm sorry
I let my pride get in the way
And in the heat of the moment I was to blame
I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be out of my mind
Now in the cold light of the day I realize
Mirror mirror hanging on the wall
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all
Mirror mirror I wish you could lie to me
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me
If only wishes could be dreams
And all my dreams could come true
There would be two us standing here in front of you
If you could show me that someone that I used to be
Bring back my baby, my baby to me
Mirror mirror hanging on the wall
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all
Mirror mirror I wish you could lie to me
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me
Mirror mirror hanging on the wall
You don't have to tell me who's the biggest fool of all
Mirror mirror I wish you could lie to me
And bring my baby back, bring my baby back to me
Mirror mirror lie to me
Show me what I wanna see
Mirror mirror lie to me
Mirror mirror lie to me
Show me what I wanna see
Mirror mirror lie to me
The lyrics of "Mirror Mirror" by M2M express the regret and pain of a woman who has lost her lover. She speaks to the mirror, wanting it to show her what she wants to see, which is not the truth. The girl she sees in the mirror is someone she doesn't like and who is not the person she wishes she could be. She questions why she didn't think before she spoke and let her emotions take over, causing her lover to leave. The pain of this loss has made her wish the mirror could bring her lover back to her. She expresses her desire to have her dreams come true and to see the person she used to be, and in turn, have her lover return to her.
The repetition of "mirror mirror" throughout the song emphasizes the importance of the mirror's role in the singer's life, as a tool for self-reflection and as a source of hope. The regret and longing in the lyrics are relatable to anyone who has experienced heartbreak and wishes they could turn back time and make different choices. The song’s lyrics are simple but powerful, and the melody and vocals evoke a sense of sadness and nostalgia.
