The Old Man In the Mirror

The Old Man In the Mirror I look at the mirror The man I see looking back He is not me I do not have bags under my eyes The wrinkles were never there before I have always been a young man I guess that was so long ago Now my hair is greying The hair that remains that is The lines of age covers my face How did I get so old When did my youth fall away I do not like the man I see in the mirror He is not me
