my hair looks in the mirror like a thatched roof
when will my hair stop looking like a thatched roof?
lover when you come to me
lover when you come to me.
my eyes are in the mirror like two coals
when will my eyes be less like two coals?
lover when you come to me
lover when you come to me.
my cheek is blank in the mirror like an unlined sheet
when will my cheek not be an unlined sheet?
lover when you come to me
lover when you come to me.
my brow is in the mirror like a coin
when will my brow be spent like a coin?
lover when you come to me
lover when you come to me.
my mouth is in the mirror like a tight-tied bow
when will my mouth be bought and sold?
lover when you come to me
lover when you come to me.
