Story Behind The Song

As I looked at myself in the mirror and reflected on life I realized I was becoming my father and my son was becoming me.

Song Description

Song is about seeing your Father and your son in yourself, as you become your father, and your son becomes you

Lyrics

I was looking in the mirror
Just the other day
I was looking in the mirror
The images I saw
Just won't go away

I saw my father in the mirror
I saw my dad when he was a younger man
I saw my father in the mirror
His life didn't turn out the way that he planned
Yeah, yeah

3 men in the mirror
The reflections appear to have no end
3 men in the mirror
But there's only one man looking in

I saw my son in the mirror
I saw my son he had grown to be a man
I saw my son there in the mirror
There's so many things he still don't understand
Yeah Yeah

3 men in the mirror
The reflections appear to have no end
3 men in the mirror
But there's only one man looking in
Yeah, yeah

Reflections of the future, reflections of the past
Blurred visions of a lifetime,that's going by way too fast
The past becomes more distant,the futures drawing near
That's why I see 3 men when I look into the mirror
That's why I see 3 men when I look into the mirror

3 men in the mirror
Hey that's me look I've grown to be a man
3 men in the mirror
My life didn't turn out the way that I planned
3 men in the mirror
Hey that's me look I've grown to be a man Yeah
3 men in the mirror
There's so many things I still don't understand
Yeah, yeah
