A Reflection Of Life
I look in the mirror and who's this I see, I see this strange woman who stares back at me.

I see her now most everyday, her hair worn short, times streaked it gray.
She looks so darn familiar, how I wish I could recall.
The reflection of this stranger, who's hanging in the hall.
