Reflections

Writers: Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier & Eddie Holland

through the hollow of my tears

I see a dream that's lost

from the hurt, ooh, that you have caused

through the mirror of my mind

time after time I see reflections of you and me

reflections of

the way life used to be

reflections of

the love you took from me

I'm all alone now, no love to shield me

back to the world of that stops at reality

oh that happiness, ah you took from me

and you left me with only memories

through the mirror of my mind

through all these tears I'm cryin'

reflects the hurt I can't control

'cause though you're gone

I keep holdin' on

through the happy times

when you were mine

as I peer through the window of lost time

thinkin' over my yesterdays

all the love I had in vain

all the love I have wasted

all the tears I have tasted, uh-huh

through the hollow of my tears

I see a dream that's lost

from the hurt, ooh, you have caused

ev'rywhere I turn, ev'rything I see

reflects the love that used to be

in you I put all my love

my faith and trust

and right before my eyes

my world has turned to dust

at drop of night I sat alone and wept

just a handful of promises'

all that's left of lovin' you -- whoo

ya got the reflection

ya got the reflection

ya got the reflection

the way I used to be

ya got the reflection

ya got the reflection

ya got the reflection

ya got the reflection
