I Brought You a Mirror

Verse 1 I searched the highways, I searched the skies Every treasure felt like a disguise Gold to a gold mine, water to the sea Nothing I found could measure what you mean to me Every spice I carried lost its flame Every gift I thought of felt the same No diamond shines brighter than your face No rhythm beats harder than your grace Chorus 1 (6 lines) You got my heart, you got my soul Already took the best of what I hold So I brought you a mirror, baby, true Look at yourself, and remember me too No gift could match the love we share The mirror shows it’s always there........ Verse 2 I walked through markets, I walked through towns Every jewel I lifted just weighed me down What’s the point of riches when you’re the gold? What’s the point of stories when yours unfold? Every plan I made just fell apart You already own the keys to my heart Pre-Chorus 2 No ocean’s deeper than your eyes No fire burns stronger than our ties Chorus 2 (6 lines) You got my heart, you got my soul Already took the best of what I hold So I brought you a mirror, baby, true Look at yourself, and remember me too No gift could match the love we share The mirror shows it’s always there...... Verse 3 I thought of giving songs, I thought of wine But every offering felt out of line What’s the point of giving what you already own? Your beauty’s the gift that’s fully grown So I laid it down, simple and clear The only gift is your reflection here No blues can break what fate designed Your face is the gift that blows my mind...... Chorus 3 (6 lines) You got my heart, you got my soul Already took the best of what I hold So I brought you a mirror, baby, true Look at yourself, and remember me too No gift could match the love we share The mirror shows it’s always there...... Bridge Patience in the searching, truth in the find The greatest treasure’s what’s already mine No gold, no ocean, no spice, no flame Just your reflection calling my name You got my heart, you got my soul Already took the best of what I hold So I brought you a mirror, baby, true Look at yourself, and remember me too No gift could match the love we share The mirror shows it’s always there
