I look in the mirror
And who do I see
Standing there
Looking back at me
A person who has looked at me
For over fifty years
Yes I have spied him look at me
Straight in the eye
In good times
And bad times
He’s always been there
Standing and watching
And always he stared
Stared right on back at me
Moved when I moved
But always the reverse it was
Whenever I moved
Sometimes I wished he spoked to me
Not said what I said
But gave me advice
With the questions I had
For this I am sure
For the rest of my life
He’ll always be there
When in the mirror I spy
