Joni Mitchell - Moon in The Mirror текст песни

Moon in the mirror,

Wont you stay a while tonight?

All things of beauty

Are too soon out of sight.

I know its a selfish plea;

You must light the hearts of more than me.

Theres a girl at her window;

Now shes trying to catch your eye.

But oh, pretty stranger,

You must keep on passing by.

Moon in the mirror, I dont know you;

Just a reflection of kisses

And whispers and indigo skies.

Moon in the mirror, look below you.

Moons looking back and theyre loving

And longing and telling no lies.

Moon in the mirror,

I will ask you one more time,

Not for a reason and not for a rhyme,

But please tell me if you can,

Have you seen a moonlit man?

Hes so very like you,

You could see him from afar.

Perhaps hes a misplaced moonbeam

Or a banished star.

Moon in the mirror, hes so like you.

Light up the room for an hour;

A smile or the beat of my heart.

Oh, how my heart tried to fight him,

Fight against mirrors of moonlight

Or lovelight. you lost from the start,

From the start
