Lyrics:
[From January 7, 1996 version:]

[tape cuts in]

Time takes its crazy toll
Mirror falling off the wall
You better look out for the looking glass girl
'Cause she's gonna take you for a fall

Look into his eyes and you shall see
Why everything is quiet and nothing's free
I wonder how he's gonna make her smile
When love is running wild on the diamond sea
