The Alan Parsons Project - I Am A Mirror lyrics

Lead vocal: leo sayer

Suppose I were to tell you
That the meaning of dreams
Is not all that it seems and
The ultimate truth is a lie
And you are just a puppet who
Can dance on a string do you feel anything?
Would you laugh? Would you
Care? Would you cry?

But the meaning of life is a mystery
How can anyone disagree?
And the music is a symphony which
We play in a minor key
I am a mirror i am a mirror
Looking at me you see yourself
I am a mirror i am a
Mirror every face is someone else
Look at me smile and you're the clown
And if I dance you turn around
Look in my eyes and see your
Tears until the music disappears

So if you are confused and don't
Know which way to go
You will certainly know from the
Moment we're living we die
And if it's all a crazy game
You don't want to play
Tell me what you can say
It's a joke it's the truth it's a lie

But the meaning of life is a
Mystery that we don't understand
And the music is a rhapsody if you're
Happy the way that you are

I am a mirror i am a mirror
Looking at me you see yourself
I am a mirror i am a
Mirror every face is someone else
Look at me smile and you're the clown
And if I dance you turn around
Look in my eyes and see your
Tears until the music disappears

And the meaning of life is a mystery though
We live it from day to day
But the music of live should be harmony
So that anyone here can play

I am a mirror i am a mirror
Looking at me you see yourself
I am a mirror i am a
Mirror every face is someone else
Look at me smile and you're the clown
And if I dance you turn around
Look in my eyes and see your
Tears until the music disappears
