in the mirror - nada surf

I look in the mirror
To see what my hair is doing
Is it kind of skywalker
Or kind of stupid?
But that's not the real
Reason I'm looking
I need a reminder of what I'm doing
I need a reminder that I'm human
In my dreams I love you like
A snowstorm in the night
The windows open wide
Here comes reflected light
We can keep the covers up
We bet it all on luck
But do dreams ever do damage to life?
When you need so much
You can't get it right
Who else is here today?
I'm alone but can't obey
Swim on my back at night
Near my clothes and a flashlight
