You were my finest friend,
I spent so many hours with you
the way I knew you'd want me to
but honest men don't prosper now
Your truth will never die,
although you've made the final bow
the face inside the looking glass
And now you've slipped away
There's no one left to watch us pass
How sad it was to be denied
The loneliness you locked inside
When all the words were gone
To mock the passing of your time
The face inside the looking glass
And now you've slipped away
There's no one left to watch us pass,
As close as loving ever can,
I'll sing them all the pain
And hope that they can see the man,
the torch bright in your hand
The lost ones standing all around
You carried on the battleground,
The face inside the looking glass,
and now you've slipped away
There's no one left to watch his back
when all the blossom told of spring,
the saddest song I'll ever sing. you
