reflections

I knew when I looked in his eyes
That he was gonna be trouble for me...

Walls...built strong to keep out, to protect.
Something so precious deep within,
Something so fragile, noone can be let in.

I took pieces of wood and I made this ladder,
I placed it against your wall just to look over.
The sight I saw mesmerised me into silence,
But a glimpse was all I got coz here I am falling.

I saw the reflection in the mirror and the eyes couldnt meet mine,
Theres a fear in the air that might dull the shine
I should walk away
But what is it about you that makes me stay

Here today, gone tomorrow,
all that will be left are memories and sorrow.
Hold on to the gift
before you know it, it will be gone, in a move that will be silent...and swift.
