[Bm]
And [G] how does your mirror [A]
[B] grow?
[G] You better watch yourself [A] when you jump [Bm] into it,
cause the [G] mirror's gonna steal [E] your [E] soul.
[Em] I wonder how it came to be my friend,
that someone just [G] like you has come again.
You'll never, [E] never know [Em] how close you came,
until you [G] fall in love with the diamond ring.
[G]
Throw all his trash [Bm] away,
[G]
look out, he's [A] here to [E] stay.
[G] Your mirror's gonna crack when he [Em] breaks into it,
and you'll never, never [E] be the [Em] same.
Look [E] into his [Em] eyes and you can see,
why all the [G] little kids are dressed in dreams.
I wonder [Em] how he's gonna make it back,
the cheeks that you [G] smell which make believe.
God crystallized [A] the [Bm] sand,
and [G] now I hope you [A]
understand.
[Em] He [G] reflected to [A] his looking glass soul,
and now [G] the mirror is your [A] only friend.
[Em] Look into his eyes and you will see,
that men are not [G] alone on the diamond sea.
Sail into the heart of a lonely storm,
and tell her that [G] you love her eternally.

[Em] Time [G]
takes its [E] crazy toll,
[G] the mirror falling off the [E] wall.
[G] You better look [A] out for the looking glass girl,
[G] cause she's gonna take you [E] for a fall.
[G]
Look into [E] his eyes [Em] and you shall see,
why everything [G] is quiet and nothing's free.
[Em] I wonder how he's gonna make her smile,
when love is [G] running wild on the diamond sea.
[G] [Em]
