A Mirror Is Harder To Hold Lyrics by Jon Foreman

Spring and Summer

2008

[Verse 1]
You could stay a while longer
We could stay up and talk about last summer
We could go down to the water
Watch the sunset goin' under
[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's not that I'm a stranger to lonely moments
I've had my share of those
[Chorus]
Please don't go, please don't leave me alone
A mirror's so much harder to hold
[Verse 2]
I could try and point the finger
But the glass points in my direction
Sure you've got your sharp edges
But my wounds are from my own reflection
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You've got nothing I could ever hold against you
I got fatal flaws to call my own
[Chorus]
Please don't go, please don't leave me alone
A mirror's so much harder to hold
[Bridge]
I met a man who's looking for perfection
Said he never met a girl who's good enough
His eyes are getting old, like they'd love to love again
Such a lonely man, such a lonely man
[Verse 3]
I see him in my reflection
Taking steps towards me these days
So I hold you that much closer
And pray we don't throw this away
[Pre-Chorus 3]
It's not that I'm a man who couldn't love you
I know what these arms are for
[Chorus]
Please don't go, please don't leave me alone
A mirror's so much harder to hold
Please don't go, please don't leave me cold
A mirror's so much harder to hold
