Kevin Coyne - Face In The Mirror lyrics

Coyne Looks like a face in the mirror That awful face in the mirror White and sad and so unkind Looks like a face in the mirror Like a stagnant river Flowing deaf and cross and blind Looks like a face in the mirror That lost face in the mirror Searching for a happy mind Looks like a face in the mirror Margaret's face in the mirror Waiting, waiting for the time I know I wasn't right I was invariably wrong I always sang a song When I should have been weeping I know I laughed with you As you stood by the door it's true As you landed in my garden, creeping Looks like a face in the mirror Your round face in the mirror Lips all red and ready for bed Looks like a face in the mirror Oh your face in the mirror The signs of hatred on your forehead Yes it looks like a face in the mirror That awful face in the mirror Remembering every little word I said Oh it looks like a face in the mirror And I don't even have to forgive her She acts as if I was already dead Oh I tried so hard, tried the big trump card But I know you said I was lying I know that you waited and waited Waited and waited and grated Listening, listening, listening and I was alive, I was alive Oh it looks like a face in the mirror Margaret's face in the mirror Listening for for my little tune Well I see your face in the mirror Oh your laughing face in the mirror And I know you've been consulting the runes Card after card fall on the table Each one willing and able To send me to some sort of matrimonial doom Yes yes, yes it's your face in the mirror Oh your face in the mirror Take away that darkness and that gloom, gloom, gloom Well I told you again Don't come here, amen I don't want you around anymore Your parents will come to collect you Big Father's there to correct you He will take you away to his den So it looks like your face in the mirror My face is there with her Snap the marriage and the fate Yes yes yes that's your face in the mirror All sepia in the mirror, Standing by your garden gate
