The Mirror of Love
A lady lookin into the mirror
As her eyes well up with tears
For she thinks she's lost her beauty
To hardships and the years.
She remembers the good times
When she was just a girl
And kept her cowboy smil’in
With her laughing eyes and smooth skin.
Now her face is show’in wrinkles
And her hair is turning gray
She Wonders where that young girl went
The one that was in the mirror yesterday.
Then her cowboy steps beside her
Puts his arms around her waist
Turns her ever so gently
Brushes teardrops from her face.
There's something I must tell yea
As I've held you through the years
Let me tell you what I see
Let me be your mirror.
I can see the blue skies
In the eyes of the woman I love
I see a little gal laughing
In the meadow where we use to play.
I can see a rainbow
From the twinkle in your smile
I can see the grass
Swaying gently in the breeze as you walk away
And I can see the sunrise
When I kiss y’er lips.
I can feel your heartbeat
Like when the eagle soars so high
And I can see your sweet Love
As deep as any well.
So when you stop to ponder
On the reflections you behold
Just remember Darling
What y’er cowboys mirror see..
