Man in the Mirror

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 favorite winter coat

This wind is blowing 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 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

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 that 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 widow deeply scared, 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 (Oh yeah)

I'm asking him to change his ways (Better 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

You gotta get it right while you got the time

'Cause when you close your heart, then you close your mind (You can't close your, your mind)

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (Oh yeah)

I'm asking him to change his ways (Better change)

No-no-no message could have been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place

Take a look at yourself and then make that change

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (Oh yeah)

I'm asking him to change his ways (Better 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 that change

Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na, na-na

Gotta make that change

You better (Man in the mirror)

It's gonna feel real good, come on

You gotta start with yourself (Yeah)

You gotta (Make that change)

Gotta make that move

Today with the (Man in the mirror)

You got to stand up, stand up, stand up, stand up

(Yeah, make that change)

Gotta make that change

Today with the (Man in the mirror)

You know it, you know it, you know it, you know it

(Change)

Make that change
