mercy mirror

Within Temptation

We are forever as one
In what remains
You're in my blood
From the cradle to the grave

And I don't like to think about the pieces
All the cracks and the bricks that still remain
If I could breathe
I'd ask you

To look in my mercy mirror
I need you more than I know
To look in my mercy mirror
Cause I'm not ready to let you go

Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go

My heart
My heart

Like the planet the sun forgot
We're down
Holding to the light that I have lost

More than words that the silence teaches
How to see and to feel what is real
Until somebody reaches my soul

To look in my mercy mirror
I need you more than I know
To look in my mercy mirror
Cause I'm not ready to let you go

Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go

It's a wicked game I play
How I use and turn to waste
No turning round, touching ground
What we had was so much more than I'd realize
If I could I'd embrace
Embrace you

And to look in my mercy mirror
I need you more than I know
And to look in my mercy mirror
Cause I'm not ready to let you go

Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
Now I know, now I know
I'm not ready to let you go
I'm not ready to let you go
