Song Critique: Grammofon – Ferdinand | Jazz Review

Lyrics of Grammofon – Ferdinand

My melancholy mirror
Do you like what you see
Perhaps you see right through me
The plain reality
A tear or even a smile
Guess it’s been a while
Oh reflection be kind
With a joyfull face of mine

How I’d wish that you would stay
In the old familiar way
How I hope that you would say
I love you
I love you
These lonesome words
I know they sometime hurt
But it’s what I choose
There’s nothing left too lose

And yet what is a mirror
If you don’t really see
Another sad projection
Not the real me
Sad eyes a glimpse of the past
Sensations never last
Oh I find it so strange
Will this gaze ever change

How I wish to stand up tall
Not to stumble not to fall
How I’d wish to hear you say
It’s all right
It’s all right
And with this simple phrase
Can see it on your face
I will soon be free
Of what you think of me
