Mercy Mirror

We are forever as one in what remains

You're in my blood from the cradle to the grave

I don't like to think about the pieces

Or the cracks and the breaks that still remain

If I could breathe, I'd ask you

To look in my mercy mirror

I need you more than I have known

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

My heart like a planet the sun forgot

Where now? Orbiting the light that I had lost

More than words, the silence teaches

How to see and to feel what is real

When sunlight reaches my soul

So look in my mercy mirror

I need you more than I have known

So 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 life plays

How it gives and takes away

No turning 'round, touching ground

What we had was so much more than I realised

If I could, I'd embrace, embrace you

And look in my mercy mirror

I need you more than I have known

So 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
