MUSIC FOR SALE

(Verse 1)

I used to dream about you
Before I knew your name
You felt like something holy
I was too afraid to claim

I saw you in the distance
Like a light behind the rain
Every time I came closer
You would vanish once again

I kept a place beside me
For someone I had never known
A hand I wanted reaching
For the parts I couldn’t show

And maybe that’s the cruelest part
Of everything I never knew
I spent my life imagining
What it would feel like to be you

(Pre-Chorus)

When I remember how you used to be
You're what i have always dreamed,
Feels like I've never been you
Do i ever see you? Do i know who you are?
Or how do we look now?

(Chorus)

You want to be my mirror
You want me
You want to be my mirror
You want me

(Verse 2)

I gave my best to strangers
Hoping they would see your face
I let them hold my body
While my heart stayed out of place

I thought love meant being chosen
So I learned to disappear
I became easier to love
But never felt more near

I wore a thousand versions
Of the woman they could keep
While the one I couldn’t stand to be
Was waiting underneath

And every time somebody left me
I blamed the empty sky
Never asking why I couldn’t
Let the real me shine

(Pre-Chorus)

Talk and tell you so much, Beautiful soul
Oh you're gonna listen to me, please
All the dark's too big, can't get out of my games
Oh tell me you want me like this, please

(Chorus)

You want to be my mirror
You want all of me
You want to be my mirror
You want all of me

(Bridge)

Tonight I saw you clearly
No dream, no distant light

You were standing in the mirror
And I almost said goodbye

Then something broke inside me
Something softer than regret

I realized I’ve missed you
Every day I’ve hated myself

(Final Chorus)

You want to be my mirror
You want all of me
You want to be my mirror
You want all of me

(Outro)

I spent my whole life
waiting for you to love me.

I never knew
you were waiting too.

You were me.
