Be My Mirror

Who has the info on a track called Be My Mirror? When was it recorded? What project was it for?
I've gone to find myself. If I should return before I get back, keep me here.

It was written for the movie "I'll do Anything" I believe.


Be My Mirror


Be my mirror, be like me
Easier than ABC
Everything I hope 2 be
U can be that and more U see


If my hand goes 2 the left, yours goes 2 the right
What U see is what U get, just keep me in your sight
U see how much U're just like me when we play this game
If U play correct my dear, we will be the same


Be my mirror, be like me
Easier than ABC
Everything I hope 2 be
U can be that and more U see


Ever since good fortune brought U into this world
I knew that U were a special, a special little girl
When the rest of us get stuck because of things we do not know
My special little girl is already a hundred paces down the road


Be my mirror, be like me
Easier than ABC
Everything I hope 2 be
I can be that and more U see
I can be that and more U see

It's a very beautiful ballad imo, intented for the "I'll do anything" soundtrack.

Just to be helpful... here is some information from Turn it Up.


Be My Mirror

Intended for the I'll Do Anything film project, "Be My Mirror" was recorded live with The NPG at Platinum Studios, Melbourne, mid-April 1992. The track is a sweet, piano-based pop tune, with a lullaby-like melody, addressed by a parent to his "special little girl." In the film, it was planned to be sung by Nick Nolte's character to his daughter as he is giving her an acting lesson, telling her to mimic what he does, hence the title of the song.

Thank you all so much! I've always wondered about the message of this song. Very sweet. It's destined for the Prince compilation disc I'm making for my daughter.
