You have no idea how hard I have
looked for a gift to bring you.
Nothing seemed right.
What's the point of bringing
gold to a gold mine, or water
to the ocean. Everything I came
up with was like taking spices
to the Orient. It's no good giving
my heart and my soul because you
already have these.
So I've brought you a mirror.
Look at yourself and remember me.
