I'm gonna make a change
For once in my life
It's gonna feel real good
It's gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right
As I turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowing 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, 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 the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change
Welele welele lele hybo (Welele lele ba)
I've been a victim of a selfish kinda love
It's time that I realize
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 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
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 that change
I'm starting with the man in the mirror (Oh yeah)
I'm asking him to change his ways (Come on change)
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
You gotta get it right while you got the time
Cause when you close your heart
Then you close your mind (Close your your mind)
I'm starting with the man in the mirror (Ooh yeah)
I'm asking him to change his ways (Change his ways)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that
Change (Oooh)
Welele welele lele hybo (Welele lele ba ooh yeah)
Change
Welele welele lele hybo
Change
Ooh yeah
