Man in the Mirror

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm gonna make a change, ah For once in my life It's gonna feel real good, gonna make a difference Gonna make it right As I turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat This wind is blowin' my mind I see the kids in the street without enough to eat Who am I to be blind, pretending not to see their needs? A summer's disregard, a broken bottle top And one man's soul They follow each other on the wind, you know 'Cause they got nowhere to go, that's why I want you to know [Chorus] 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 makе the world a better placе Take a look at yourself and then make a change Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na [Verse 2] I've been a victim of a selfish kind of 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, you see 'Cause they got no place to be, that's why I'm starting with me [Chorus] I'm starting with the man in the mirror (Who?) I'm asking him to change his ways (Who?) 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 (Oh, yeah) I'm asking him to change his ways (A change) 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 the change [Outro] You gotta get it right, while you got the time 'Cause when you close your heart Then you close your mind Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na Oh, yeah Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na I'm gonna make a change It's gonna feel real good, come on (Change) You've got to lift yourself, you know it You've got to start with yourself, (Yeah), yeah (Make that change) I gotta make that change today (Man in the mirror) Oh, you know it, you know it, you know it, oh, oh (Yeah) Yeah (Make that change) Yeah, gotta make that change today (Man in the mirror), ah Do it today, do it today, do it today, hey, yeah-yeah, ooh (Change)
