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, I looked into a pool
And 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, the 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 day is 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

Between reflections I must choose
Between reflections I must choose
This song is from the album "Sincerely Cliff" and "About That Man".
