Reflection

Prince

Prince — Reflection

Two sevens together
Like time indefinite
Try to catch the glass
Before it falls

Without a frown
Can you turn up the stereo?
I want to play you this old song
It’s about love
(Can I do that)

Did we remember to water the plants today?
I forgot to look up at the moon because
I was too busy
I was too busy looking at you, baby

Still it’s nice to know
That when are bodies wear out
We can get another
What does that one thing have to do
With the other one?
I don’t know
I was just thinking about my Mother

You know what
Turn the stereo back down
Ain’t nothing worse than an ole’ worn-out love song

Tell me do you like my hair this way?
Remember all the way back in the day
When we would compare whose Afro was the roundest?

Mirror tiles
Above the bed
Fishing nets and posters
All over the walls

Sometimes I just want to go
Sit out on the stoop and
Play my guitar

Just watch all
All the cars go by…
