The Girl In The Mirror (from the soundtrack: "Out-of-Order").

You tell me you love me forever,
You treat me with angel-like care,
I want to believe,
In the girl that you see,
But my doubt; it won't let me dare,

O', I wish I could see with your eyes,
And trust in the beauty you see,
In the depths of my soul,
I wish I could know,
How your love is reflecting on me,

But the girl in the mirror won't show me,
The beauty that you claim to see,
I want to believe you; I trust you,
But the girl in the mirror is me,

Everything that I've ever learned,
Tells me; have faith in your soul,
Every truth,
Leads me to you,
Still there's that girl that I know,

I can dream with the pictures you give me,
I can warm for a while in your tho'ts,
I can smell the rose,
Of the beauty you know,
And escape from the girl I am not,

But the girl in the mirror won't show me,
The beauty that you claim to see,
I want to believe you; I trust you,
But the girl in the mirror is me,

O', the girl in the mirror doesn't love me,
Ironically; so easy to see,
You must know my prison,
Is lacking your vision,
Of the girl in the mirror you see,
O', the girl in the mirror I need,

But the girl in the mirror won't show me,
The beauty that you claim to see,
I want to believe you; I trust you,
But the girl in the mirror is me,

O', I trust you; and I believe you,
But the girl in the mirror is me.
