Cliff Richard Reflections Lyrics

Reflections Lyrics

Last night I had a dream,

Through a swirling fog I walked along on the
edge of a stream,

I heard somebody groan,

I stopped, looked into a
pool,

And I saw the reflection of a fool

I saw the reflection of a
fool.



Dragging him by his throat

Were the collar and the
links of a chain,

On his shoulders a coat,

On his feet shoes of
pain,

The coat was strife,

The chain was pride,

I saw the
reflection, and I cried

I saw the reflection, and I cried



Tears for myself a fool, 

A man chained by independence,

Gripped
by despair so cruel, 

My life was a lot of nonsense,

My eyes were
closed, but in my mind,

I saw the reflection so unkind,

I saw the
reflection so unkind



Sick of life - scared of death

My days
just one long futility,

Feeling my emptiness, I cried "God set me
free",

I looked once more - I don't know how,

But I saw the
reflection changing now,

I saw the reflection changing now



A
man was in my place

A man with holes in his hands and side,

A man I
could not face,

The man I had crucified,

On him was my coat,

My chains and my shoes,

And between reflections I must choose,

Between reflections I must choose,

Repeat twice..
