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 favorte 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? Pretendind not to see their needs
A summer\'s disregard, a broken bottle top
And a one man\'s soul
Ther 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 on message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
(Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah)

I\'ve been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It\'s time that I realize
That there some with on 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
(And a washed-out dream)
They follow the pattern on the wind, ya\' see
\'Cause thay got on place to be
(Starting with me!)

I\'m starting with the man in the mirror
(Ooh)
I\'m asking him to change his ways
(Ooh)
And on message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
(If you wanna make the world a better place)
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change
(Take a look at yourself, and then make a change)
