Man In The Mirror

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 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 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 a change
(Na-na-na, Na-na-na, Na-na-na-na) Oh, yeah

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 (a 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

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (Ooh!)
I'm asking him to change his ways (Ooh!)
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)
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could've 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!) (Yeah!)
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(Yeah) Take a look at yourself and then make the change

You gotta get it right while you got the time (gotta get it right, yeah, oh)
'Cause when you close your heart then you close your mind!

(Starting) with that man in the mirror (man in the mirror, oh yeah!)
I'm asking him to change his ways (Better change!)
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place (if you wanna make the world, ooh)
Take a look at yourself and then make a change
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-nah

Na-na-na, na-na-na, yeah (oh, yeah)
(Ooh) Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-nah
I'm gonna make a change for once in my life!
(I'm gonna make a change for once in my life)
I'm gonna make a change for once in my life!
