I always wanted that boy she's in love with
And that pretty house they share up on that hill
Looks like she got the life I always wanted
And always will
Well, I like the way she laughs when she's laughin'
And I love the way she walks into a room
Shoulders back, like she ain't scared of nothin'
Down to her boots
But she just stopped me in my tracks
'Cause I've never seen her look like that
She looked me right straight in the eye, said, "I don't know why you're surprised
The truth, to me, could not be any clearer
You've always been the girl in the mirror"
She said, "I knew, one day, we'd wind up here together
You just had some catchin' up to do
Whether life gets bad or it gets better
Now, you see what you can make it through"
Now, she just stopped me in my tracks
'Cause I've never seen myself look like that
She looked me right straight in the eye, said, "I don't know why you're surprised
The truth, to me, could not be any clearer
You've always been the girl in the mirror"
Yeah, she just stopped me in my tracks
'Cause I've never seen myself look like that
She looked me right straight in the eye, said, "I don't know why you're surprised
Well, you're tender and you're tough and you're beautifully enough
And I'm talkin' to you, girl"
Yeah, I'm lookin' at that girl
In the mirror
