[Intro] Every time you walk past I see you Every time you stop and look I see you And every time you struggle I see you And every time you triumph ... I see you [Verse 1] Yesterday gave the homeless Your last nickel And this morning your friend Jackson Needed your jacket And each time you gave freely Before they could ask it And your will is good Your intentions are pure And I see it And I see you [Pre-Chorus] Everywhere you go Every time you look From every window And every mirror Every puddle And polished metal [Chorus] I'm the man in the mirror I'm the cast of reflection And each time I see you I change my recollection And when you struggle And when you survive I see you I see you And I'm glad you're alive Because I'm the man in the mirror Looking at you With your own eyes [Verse 2] I saw it when you held the door For pretty young Janet And I saw you take more than you needed While others left empty handed And I know it was weakness And I know it was fear Sometimes you stumble Sometimes you become your worst fear And I see it when it happens And I see what you do [Bridge] All because... [Chorus Rise] I'm the man in the mirror I'm the cast of reflection And each time I see you I change my recollection And when you struggle And when you survive I see you I see you And I'm glad you're alive Because I'm the man in the mirror Looking at you With your own eyes [Outro] I know that you're trying And I know that it's hard The world is so cold And your road's made you tired It's always the roughest When you think you're alone And it's always a little bitter When you're told to atone Who knows what you've been through Who knows what you've done...? [Chorus] I'm the man in the mirror I'm the cast of reflection And each time I see you I change my recollection And when you struggle And when you survive I see you I see you And I'm glad you're alive Because I'm the man in the mirror Looking at you... ... With your own eyes
