Take a Look

Don't stop
Keep on walking
Look up
And stare at the beauty that surrounds
There's so much we take for granted
But do we ever take the time to slow down

Have you heard what they're saying on the news?
People fighting for peace just like me and you
It's time to show some love in a different kind of way
And though we've never dared to do such thing alone
The world is crying for love like never before

I've been waiting for the world to change
I've been wanting to turn the page
I've been trying to find the light
All it takes is a good look inside
To find a way
To find a path
To dance again and do what's right

(Take a look in the mirror)

(Take a look in the mirror)

It's been a few years since you've walked road
Smiling at stranger seems to do so much more
With a little help from above
Do goodness in the name of love

Some will will follow
Some just won't
What matters here
Is giving more and more

Waiting on the world to change
(Ahh)
Waiting on the world to change

Some people change their name Some people stay the same
Other things take radical change

The world's been changing
Oh yes it has
Giving time time
Letting it heal the past

And that's just how
That's just how we follow the light
That's just how
That's just how we'll make thing right

Take a look
Take a look
Take a look
Take a look in the mirror

Take a look
Take a look
Take a look
Take a look in the mirror

Take a look at who, at who you are
Take a look
Take a look
Take a look
Take a look in the mirror

Take a look
Take a look
Take a look
Take a look in the mirror
Take a look at who, at who you are

And that's just how
That's just how we'll follow the light
That's just how we'll make things right
