Girl:
   Dm         Gm     Am           A
   I feel his shadow looming over me
   Bb         F                Am  G
   Leaving me defeated and confused
   Dm             Gm           Am            A
   His eyes still haunt me, if only I'd done more
   Bb          [Am]  [C]   Dm
   Maybe I gave up on him too soon...

Mother:
   Dm           Gm          Am            A
   I share your sorrow, but we are not to blame
   Bb                   F           Am G
   His heart has always been a mystery

Girl and mother:
   Dm          Gm            Am          A
   We'll never fathom, we'll never understand
   Bb          C                G 
   Did he ever need us, were we real
             Bb            [Am]    [C]  Dm   
   Or mere reflections in a mirror of dreams?

Girl:
   Dm             Gm      Am             A
   What holds his future, how will he survive?
   Bb             F        Am        G
   Without us to save him from himself
  Dm            Gm     Am       A
   Where has he run to, will he return?
   Bb      [Am] [C]      Dm
   I hope he knows I wish him well

Mother:
   Dm         Gm               Am             A
   It's up to him now, there's nothing we can do
   Bb              F           Am      G
   I fear we cannot give him what he needs

Girl and mother:
   Dm         Gm         Am               A
   Are we but phantoms inside his tangled mind?
   Bb            C           G 
   Will he ever need us, are we real...
             Bb            [Am]    [C]  Dm
   Or mere reflections in a mirror of dreams?
