In the Mirror
The Common Kings Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Verse 1:]
You might fall, you might fade
When you're hurting inside and
Your hearts not the same. Leave
The doubt, and the blame. Cause
There's one thing I know, so just let
Me explain
[Chorus:]
Your sweets of complexion, kissed
By the sun. An inmate of heaven, girl
You know you're the one! So believe me
When I say this, your reflection, girl I
Promise is worth more than you know!
You're perfect to me. Don't ever change
What you see, in the mirror, in the mirror.
That girl you see, means the world to me,
In the mirror, in the mirror

[Verse 2:]
Don't be shy, or afraid, cause that feeling
Inside, they can never take away. Through
The lies and the games, there's one thing for
Sure that will always be the same.

[Chorus:]

[Bridge:]
Just let me hold you in my arms, show you
You're beautiful the way you are baby. There's
Nobody else, I love you for yourself! Baby just
Believe, believe in what I say...

[Pre-Chorus:]
You're perfect to me. Don't ever change
What you see, in the mirror, in the mirror.




That girl you see, means the world to me,
In the mirror, in the mirror (x2)
