Reflection

"Reflection" is a song on the soundtrack of the 1998 animated film Mulan. It was recorded by Christina Aguilera, whose pop version was released as an airplay-single only in 1998. In 1999, it was included in her self-titled debut album.

[Verse 1] Look at me You may think you see who I really am But you'll never know me Every day It's as if I play a part Now I see If I wear a mask, I can fool the world But I cannot fool my heart [Chorus] Who is that girl I see Staring straight back at me? When will my reflection show Who I am inside? [Verse 2] I am now In a world where I have to hide my heart And what I believe in But somehow I will show the world what's inside my heart And be loved for who I am [Chorus] Who is that girl I see Staring straight back at me? Why is my reflection someone I don't know? Must I pretend that I'm someone else For all time? When will my reflection show Who I am inside? [Bridge] There's a heart that must be free, to fly That burns with a need to know the reason why Why must we all conceal What we think, how we feel? Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide? [Chorus] I won't pretend that I'm Someone else for all time When will my reflection show Who I am inside? [Outro] When will my reflection show Who I am inside?
