Story Behind The Song
My wife bought me a 1968 12-string Gibson acoustic guitar so I wanted the first song i wrote on it to reflect the era. Back then they had the "Nowhere Man," "The Tin Man" "Old Man," "The Sandman" and "The Tin Man" to name a few. This became 'Mirror Man."

Lyrics
Who are you
Mr Mirror Man?
You hide from us all behind your glass wall
Just tell me what's your plan?
When you're alone
Do you disappear
Through a secret door from which you explore
An alternate new frontier
Mr Mirror Man, Mr Mirror Man
Do you reflect me
Or do I reflect you?
You move when I move
But who's following who?
Mr Mirror Man
As you turn your cheek
Do you battle back fears, fight your own tears
Are there dreams that you seek?
You look older than me
Mr Mirror Man
But are you so wise I can trust your advice
When you offer a helping hand?
Mr Mirror Man
