Lyrics: Reflection (alternate Version)

[Music by Matthew Wilder, lyrics by David Zippel. Performed by Lea Salonga. (Michelle Kwan skates to this version.)]

Look at me
I will never pass for a perfect bride
Or a perfect daughter
Can it be
I'm not meant to play this part?
Now I see
If I learn each rule and I fool them all
I could never fool my heart

Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Somehow I cannot hide
Who I am, though I've tried
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

How I pray
That a time will come I can free myself
And meet their expectations
On that day
I'll discover some way to be myself
And to make my family proud

They want a docile lamb
No one knows who I am
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?

How I pray
That a time will come I can free myself
And meet their expectations
On that day
I'll discover some way to be myself
And to make my family proud

They want a docile lamb
No one knows who I am
Must there be a secret me
I'm forced to hide?
Must I pretend that I'm
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
