Joni Mitchell, CC (born Roberta Joan Anderson; November 7, 1943) is a Canadian musician, singer songwriter, and painter. Mitchell began singing in small nightclubs in Saskatchewan and Western Canada and then busking in the streets and dives of Toronto. In 1965 she moved to the United States and, touring constantly, began to be recognized when her original songs ("Urge for Going," "Chelsea Morning," "Both Sides, Now," "The Circle Game") were covered by notable folk singers, allowing her to sign with Reprise Records and record her own debut album in 1968.

Moon in the mirror
Won't you stay awhile tonight?
All things of beauty
Are too soon out of sight
I know it's a selfish plea
You must light the hearts of more than me
There's a girl at her window
Now she's trying to catch your eye
But oh, pretty stranger
You must keep on passing by

Moon in the mirror
I don't know you
Just a reflection
Of kisses and whispers and indigo skies
Moon in the mirror
Look below you
Moon's looking back
And they're loving and longing and telling no lies

Moon in the mirror
I will ask you one more time
Not for a reason
And not for a rhyme
But please tell me if you can
Have you seen a moonlit man?
He's so very like you
You could see him from afar
Perhaps he's misplaced moonbeam
Or a banished star

Moon in the mirror
He's so like you
Light up the room
For an hour 
A smile or the beat of my heart
Oh how my heart tried to fight him
Fight against mirrors
Of moonlight or love light
You're lost from the start
From the start
