Keith Whitley
"I Never Go Around Mirrors"

(Lefty Frizzell - Sanger D. Shafer)

I can's stand to see a good man go to waste
One who never combs his hair or shaves his face
A man who leans on wine over love that's told a lie
Oh, it tears me up to see a grown man cry.

So I never go around mirrors
I can't stand to see me without you by my side
No, I never go around mirrors
'Cause I've got a heartache to hide.

--- Instrumental ---

I can't stand to be where heartaches hang around
It's so easy for the blues to get me down
To see a grown man crawl is more than I can stand
I can't look into eyes of half a man.

So I never go around mirrors
I can't stand to see me without you by my side
No, I never go around mirrors
'Cause I've got a heartache to hide.

And it tears me up to see a grown man cry...
