Текст песни Promises (Systemyk) с переводом

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 need

A summer’s disregard,

A broken bottle top

And a 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, na na, na nah)

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

(A 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

(Ooh!)

I’m asking him to change his ways

(Ooh!)

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

(Better 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

Gotta get it right, while you got the time

'Cause if you close your heart

Then you close your…)

Mind!

Starting with the man in the mirror

(Oh yeah!)

I’m asking him to change

(Better 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 a change

Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah Yeah!

(Oh yeah!)

Na na na, na na na, na na, na nah

I’m gonna make a change

For once in my life

I’m gonna make a change

For once in my life…
