Il testo della Moon in the mirror

Joni Mitchell

Moon in the mirror, won't you stay awhile tonight?
All things of beauty are too soon out of sight
I know it's a selfish plea, you must light the hearts of more than me
There's a girl at her window, now she's trying to catch your eye
But oh, pretty stranger, you must keep on passing by

Moon in the mirror, i don't know you
Just a reflection of kisses and whispers and indigo skies
Moon in the mirror, look below you
Moon's looking back and they're loving and longing and telling no lies

Moon in the mirror, i will ask you one more time
Not for a reason and not for a rhyme
But please tell me if you can, have you seen a moonlit man?
He's so very like you, you could see him from afar
Perhaps he's misplaced moonbeam or a banished star

Moon in the mirror, he's so like you
Light up the room for an hour, a smile or the beat of my heart
Oh, how my heart tried to fight him, fight against mirrors
Of moonlight or love light, you're lost from the start, from the start
