It's a one-way mirror
looking at you
standing, staring on the other side
And you can't see through, no.

It's a one-way mirror
and I can't look away
' long as you're there
I'm here to stay

Because you're so beautiful
so damn beautiful
And the girl you've set your eyes on
She'll never see this
One has to be on the other side

You're in the light
I'm in the dark
I only wish for this to remain
For me to stay and stare

Because you're so beautiful
just so damn beautiful
And the girl you've set your eyes on
She'll never see this
One has to be on the other side

The clock is ticking
Somewhere in the dark
I've got so many things
left undone

I've got someone waiting
Somewhere I don't know (and I don't care)
Maybe I should go
before the glass breaks
I should go
before everything gives way.
