  • When we began, you could be so shy
    But by the end, you became a different guy
    And so I thought your eyes were fixed on me
    But now I know, yourself is all you wanna see!

    Mirror man, no one could love you
    Better than a mirror can, no
    Mirror man, I'll make it easier
    For you to understand, oh yeah
    I think you're falling for you
    Someone should tell ya the truth
    You see perfection in your reflection
    And trouble's coming for you
    Mirror man (Mirror man), I wish I could love you
    Better than a mirror can!

    You would say that I'm your only one,
    But I would tell you to walk before you run
    And I was right and I realize it now,
    Guess I'm attracted to the kind that let me down!

    Mirror man, no one could love you
    Better than a mirror can, no
    Mirror man, I'll make it easier
    For you to understand, oh yeah
    I think you're falling for you
    Someone should tell ya the truth
    You see perfection in your reflection
    And trouble's coming for you
    'Cause all this foolish pride
    Makes you the ugly guy
    You can try to change,
    But you've already lost your way
    Why don't you hear what I say?

    Yeah, I think you're falling for you
    Someone should tell ya the truth, oh no
    You see perfection in your reflection
    And trouble's coming for you
    Mirror man (Mirror man), I wish I could love you
    Better than a mirror can! (Ooh)
