Gotta make a change,
|
For once in my life,
|
It's gonna feel real good,
|
Gonna make a difference,
|
Gonna make it right.
|
|
As I turned up the collar on,
|
My favorite winter coat,
|
This wind is blowin' my mind,
|
I see the kids in the street,
|
With not enough to eat,
|
Who am I to be blind,
|
Pretending not to see their needs.
|
|
A summer's disregard,
|
A broken bottle top,
|
And a one man's soul,
|
They follow each other,
|
On the wind ya' know,
|
'Cause they got nowhere to go,
|
That's why I want you to know.
|
|
I'm starting with the man in the mirror,
|
I'm asking him to change his ways,
|
And no message could have been any clearer,
|
If you wanna make the world a better place,
|
Take a look at yourself and then make a change,
|
Na na na, na na na, na na na na.
|
|
I've been a victim of,
|
A selfish kinda love,
|
It's time that I realize,
|
There are some with no home,
|
Not a nickel to loan,
|
Could it be really me pretending that they're not alone.
|
|
A willow deeply scarred,
|
Somebody's broken heart,
|
And a washed out dream,
|
(Washed out dream),
|
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see,
|
'Cause they got no place to be,
|
That's why I'm starting with me.
|
|
I'm starting with the man in the mirror,
|
I'm asking him to change his ways,
|
And no message could have been any clearer,
|
If you wanna make the world a better place,
|
Take a look at yourself and then make a change.
|
|
I'm starting with the man in the mirror,
|
I'm asking him to change his ways,
|
And no message could have been any clearer,
|
If you wanna make the world a better place,
|
Take a look at yourself and then make a change.
|
|
I'm starting with the man in the mirror,
|
(Man in the mirror, oh yeah),
|
I'm asking him to change his ways, yeah,
|
(Change),
|
No message could have been any clearer,
|
If you wanna make the world a better place,
|
Take a look at yourself and then make the change,
|
You gotta get it right, while you got the time,
|
'Cause when you close your heart,
|
(You can't close your, your mind),
|
Then you close your mind.
|
|
(That man, that man, that man),
|
(That man, that man, that man),
|
(With the man in the mirror, oh yeah),
|
(That man you know, that man you know),
|
(That man you know, that man you know),
|
I'm asking him to change his ways,
|
(Change),
|
No message could have been any clearer,
|
If you wanna make the world a better place,
|
Take a look at yourself then make that change.
|
|
(Na na na, na na na, na na na na),
|
Ooh,
|
Oh yeah,
|
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah,
|
(Na na na, na na na, na na na na).
|
|
Oh no,
|
Oh no, I'm gonna make a change,
|
It's gonna feel real good,
|
Sure mon,
|
(Change),
|
Just lift yourself,
|
You know, you got to stop it yourself,
|
(Yeah),
|
Oh,
|
Make that change,
|
(I gotta make that change today, oh),
|
(Man in the mirror),
|
You got to, you got to not let yourself, brother oh,
|
Yeah,
|
You know that,
|
(Make that change),
|
(I gotta make that make me then make),
|
You got, you got to move,
|
Sure mon, sure mon,
|
You got to,
|
(Stand up, stand up, stand up),
|
Make that change,
|
Stand up and lift yourself, now,
|
(Man in the mirror),
|
Make that change,
|
(Gonna make that change, sure mon),
|
(Man in the mirror),
|
You know it, you know it, you know it, you know,,
|
(Change),
|
Make that change.
