I 'm gonna make a change
For once in my life
It's gonna fe el real good
Gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right
As I turned up the collar on
M y favorite winter coat

I see the ki ds in the street
With not en ough to eat
Who am I to be blind
Pretending not to see their need

A nd a one man's soul
They follow each other on the wind, ya know
'Cause they go t nowhere to go

A nd no messa ge could h ave been any clearer

If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at y ourself and then make a cha nge

A selfish kinda love

There ar e some with no home
Not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me
Pretending that they're n ot alone
Cm7
A willow deeply scarred
