( most of the other lyrics to this song were forgotten , forever blowing in the wind ) mirror of mistakes ( 1978 ) when you get old , old , old the difference that age makes like when you get slow , slow , slow and slow forget that my heart aches when you get low , low , low forget that my heart breaks im only looking through , through , through and through your mirror of mistakes year of mistakes year of mistakes if you just knew , knew , knew forget what your love takes and when you feel low , low , low forget what your love makes im only looking through , through , through and through your mirror of mistakes year of mistakes a lover and a friend ( 1978 ) you havent known me long but its been long enough to know in case you havent noticed i love you but you say things you dont mean do you mean to be so cruel ?
