My Mirror
When I look in my mirror
What do I see
An older lady looking back at me
I don't go out dancing so I sit home alone
No one remembers no one even phones
I used to be the bell of the ball
now I sit home alone not even a call
My dance book was filled with the handsomest of men
Now i know that i will never see them again
You'd think that,that would bother me
Well you'd be o so wrong
Because I can smile and remember so clearly the dance and the song
Again I lookk in my mirror
And the wrinkles and the grey hair are all gone
So I turn on the music and dance and sing along
Because God gave me a special gift called memory
And as long as I can remember
I can always see
All the things that I used to be
