The Man In The Mirror

Start to make a change from 'the man in the mirror'....

(Sang by Michael Jackson)

I'm gonna make a change for once in my life
It's gonna be 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 summers disregard, a broken bottle up, and a one man's soul
They 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 no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make a world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then 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 starting with me

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