Look through the mirror

I saw you through my eyes
didn't realize it was a mirage.
I had my black and white vision
but now I've got a colored view!

It's a flight through the mirror
a look through other eyes
I got deep inside your head
and saw your world appear.

I took another look at it
and find I had been wrong
there's no easy reality
in this complicated world.

I looked with your eyes
I thought with your mind
and now I understand you
as sad as it might be.

I judged you with no knowledge
and I didn't even try
to step inside your world and see
everything through your eyes.

I didn't want to have
anything to do with you
but I never gave you any chance
to prove what you really are.

But now I've been into your world
I see what you've gone through
I see all things that went so wrong
I don't know what I'd do if it were me.

Now I hear all the things I said
in a very different way
I saw you live in your own world
I saw your view on me.

I see you're another person
but you're one I understand
I feel the need to protect you
to keep you up next time.

I realize I hurt you
and I can't find out why.
I realize what I have done
how you took it to heart.

I want to give it another try
to see what it could be
the two of us together
put good things out of life.

Can you ever forgive me
after all I have done
I never spent a moment
to take a look at you.

I suffered in another way
but I have felt the same pain
you can use this broken heart
to heal a broken life!
