Lyrics

Dare I Look in the Mirror
By Marty Nelson
C 2011
 
Sometimes it hurts so bad
That I close my eyes,
When love has nothing more to touch
And tears no cause to dry.
 
Dust on the window
Wind on the water
Where can I find the answers I need right now?
The answers I need right now.
Dare I look in the mirror?
 
Silence can be comfort.
Silence can be cruel.
Turn your back on any truth.
Preach only to the fools.
 
Before the fevered word can claim my lips
On this bitter road too long,
I need to find the spirit lost, I fear –
For this moment shattered in my life is so strong.
 
Oh, to hear your voice again
And fire a gentle smile.
Please take away this emptiness
And hold me just awhile.
 
Dust on the window
Wind on the water
Where can I find the answers I need right now?
The answers I need right now.
Dare I look in the mirror.
