Years after letting her true love go because of family pressure, he is still the only one in her heart. If only she had stood up for him. If only she had fought for their incredible bond, if only she had tried to open their minds and hearts... Maybe they would have accepted him despite his difference, maybe they would be together today, maybe she could have been happy...
The inspiration for this song is water. We all come from water, the womb. We will return to water. "I saw my own reflection" stems from narcissus who fell in love with his own image when he looked into the water. It is a love song to the oceans, a quest to keep the oceans clean, so if we fall in love again with where we come from, water, we should keep it healthy, since we will return there again. with love Barbara Panther and Roderik Vanderstraeten.
