~~~ Echo ~~~


I'm almost afraid to look today
See what the years have done
You're looking older day by day
And I just want to run.


The mirror tells the secret
That I'm afraid will tell
That you don't look as pretty
As you did back then, oh well!


You have so many wrinkles
That weren't there yesterday
Your hair is white as snow too
What happened along the way?


Your stature's somewhat lowered
As you limp along the walk
Your speech is somewhat muffled
As you try your best to talk.


I look into the mirror
To see what I can see
Your picture is much dimmer
Not what it used to be.


Could it be added birthdays
That caused this change in you?
I don't like the mirror
Because it makes me blue.


What happened to those years
And where did you go too?
The mirror tells the story
Coz...I do not recognize you…
