Before the World was made [Mirror Mirror] lyrics

If I make the lashes dark

And the eyes more bright

And the lips more scarlet,

Or ask if all be right

From mirror after mirror,

No vanity's displayed:

I'm looking for the face I had

Before the world was made.

What if I look upon a man

As though on my beloved,

And my blood be cold a while

And my heart unmoved?

Why should he think me cruel

Or that he is betrayed?

I'd have him love the thing I was

Before the world was made.
