| I’m gonna make a change
|
| 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 favourite 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
|
| I’ve been a victim of a selfish kind of love
|
| It’s time that i realize
|
| That 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
|
| 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
|
| You gotta get it right, while
|
| You got the time
|
| 'Cause when you close your heart
|
| You can’t close your mind!
|
| Gotta get it right now!
|
| One more time!
|
| Gotta get it right |
