Chimène Badi - Man in the mirror Lyrics

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 blowing my mind
I see the kids in the street
With not enough to eat
Who am I to be blind
Pretending not to feel 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, nana-nana
Oh, oh

I've been a victim of
A selfish kind of 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 (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 (who?)
I'm asking him to change his ways (who?)
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 (who?)
And I'm asking him to change his ways (who?)
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 (man in the mirror, oh yeah)
I'm asking him to change his ways (you better change)
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 the change
You gotta get it right while you got the time
('Cause when you close your heart) you got to close up your mind

That man, that man, that man, that man (man in the mirror, oh yeah)
That man, that man, that man, that man (yeah, yeah)
That man, that man, that man, that man (ooh, ooh)
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, nana-nana
Oh, oh

(Oh yeah) yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
(Na-na-na, na-na-na)
Oh no, no, no

I'm gonna make a change
It's gonna feel real good
Come on, yeah
Just lift yourself, you'll love it
You've got to start it yourself
(Whoo, make that change)
I'm gonna make that change, today, yeah
You've gotta start with yourself, brother, ow
(Yeah, make that change)
I've got to get that man, that man
You've got to, you've got to move, come on, come on, ah
You got to stand up, stand up (yeah, make that change)
Stand up, stand up and lift yourself now
Whoo, whoo, whoo
(Yeah, make that change)
Gotta make that change, come on
(Man in the mirror)
You know it, you know it, you know it, you know
(Change) make that change
