Reflections Lyrics

(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
Lost in a world of distorted 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 a hurt I can't control
'Cos 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, oh-ho
Through the hollow of my tears
I see a dream that's lost
From the hurt, ooh, you have caused
Everywhere I turn
Everything I see
Reflects the love that used to be
In you I put all my love
All of my faith and trust
And right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust
After all those nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a handful of promises'
All that's left of lovin' you
You're just a reflection - just a reflection
Just a reflection - the way life used to be
