One day I am sure these lyrics will apply to me...um, like today, maybe. I have very few mirrors in my home and I plan on keeping it that way so I won't be quite sure what I look like. I have a bit more confidence that way.
And I dance, sometimes, when I'm home alone. With the curtains closed.
I know I rarely think of what anyone actually looks like; I think of who they ARE, at least who I think they are! But I also know I'm kind of a ditzy airhead and that a lot of people judge by whether or not one's appearance is close enough to the current ideal.
Hopefully some people can see beauty somewhere within even the sagging soggy waters of aging, and of what life does to us when we are not looking. I'm never going to give up looking for those people. Or give up dancing, even if only in my dreams.
