In the highest parts of this house, there’s a tiny room way in the back But no one ever goes there, and nobody bothers to ask What lies behind the closed door? It’s a lonely world of emptiness Save for a fragile little girl, who dreams of happiness
And then it happened one day - everything was unexpected Inside the dusty old mirror, was, instead, a boy reflected He said he was a magician, that wishes were his specialty I wonder how I felt that time, when you looked and smiled at me.
And it seemed that all the wheels and gears of fate, began to turn starting that day I wondered if I were to call you my first “friend” would it be okay? Now I hesitantly reached and placed my hand, against the mirror over yours and It all began (the flow of magic) “Won’t you please say my name-”
From the fingers touching mine, I could hear your voice for the first time Overflowings me with such feelings, I couldn’t stop the tears from falling And if we only could stay, Just like this for the rest of our days Inside an empty world alone by myself, Everyday hoping that I’d meet someone else Until the day I finally felt The warmth of your hand
He granted all my wishes, such a generous magician He cured me of my illness, so I could walk easily again The never-ending warfare drew to a close so very soon And I could not be happier, as laughter filled the room
Like every girl I had a dream, wanting to be a princess To own a beautiful castle of which I would be the mistress I planned out every detail, how every room and hall should be I guess it’s no surprise that now it’s all reality
And just like this I got every single thing, that ever appeared in my dreams But still I felt so incomplete- there is one more thing that’s missing And it is something only you can give - a special type of “magic” Now let’s promise... (“Don’t let go of my hand”) “Won’t you please stay here with me-”
And if we only could stay, Together like this for always There is nobody else who would do, it absolutely must be you And that’s why, I beg you please - can you stay here ‘til I fall asleep? ‘Cause if I close my eyes I’ll be all alone; I only want to hear you say my name, so Until that time will come, just know- I’m waiting for you
The magic that you cast - will not always last Everything the girl dreamed will once more, become what it was before “And now I have to go,” “Please don’t go just yet,” “The magic is dissolving away. So let us bid each other farewell,” “I won’t say goodbye!”, “And now, I beg of you... please do not cry.” “Please don’t leave my side-!!”
In the world through the mirror, everything is set in reverse, Though our destinies are connected, they should’ve never intersected Everything that I gave, was only given to repay Another side of life that I’ve come to see, I won’t forget the times you’re sad or happy And in return I want you to promise me That I will always be Within your memories
But if only you could stay, I would tell you, it is okay Even if you have no magic, I really don’t need any of it!! I am hoping that right here, maybe one day you’ll reappear Polishing up this old mirror so that I Might have you once again right here by my side No matter how much time may pass me by I promise that I’ll always be Waiting for you.
