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 need
with so much disregard
a broken bottle top
And a one man's soul
They follow eachother 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 way
And no message could have been any clearer
if you wanna make the world a better place
take a look at yourself, and 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 startin' with me
I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his way
