As I look at the reflection
Staring back at me
I see this woman
But I wonder.... Just who is she
Who is this person
I have seen everyday
Did I really get to know her
Or did time just slip away
Have I allowed her to live
Or did I lock her up and throw away the key
Did I hide her in a room somewhere
And never got to know me
~~~~~~
Is that a stranger looking back
and wondering the same thing
Is she asking,"Why didn't you do more?
Why didn't you go ahead and take those chances?
That dream that was inside your heart
Why didn't you go and explore?"
Every single day
Just like a new start
You can repeat all the yesterdays over again
Or find something new inside your heart
Only a few times
We pass that brass ring
Then the time comes it's not there anymore
You've missed out on everything
~~~~~
Now I can go out there
And face a new task
Or.....
I can just sit here
Hiding behind the mask
Do I make a deal with this person
in the mirror right now
Do I tell her,
I've got some time left
I have to change somehow
So if I see something out there
Something I really want
I am not going to look the other way
I'm going to reach out and grab that brass ring
Because the rest of my life starts
Right Here...Right Now...Today
