Lyrics of Man In The Mirror/Below The Surface by Dan Fogelberg
The man in the mirror
He keeps getting nearer
But I am not moving
The man in the backstreet
Is holding a trackmeet
But I will not run
Someplace inside you a seed has been born
You′ve got to watch it grow
Someplace inside you a river is waiting to flow
Will you let it go?
Da da da, da da da, da da da
Those voices you've hearing
Are never worth fearing
They′re only inside you
They'll tempt you and taunt you
They'll help you and haunt you
But don′t try to hide
Sometimes the sun will be right at your shoulder
Helping you keep your stride
Sometimes you might have to give up a piece of your pride
Have you even tried?
Da da da, da da da, da da da
The man in the mirror
He keeps getting nearer
But I am not moving
The man in the backstreet
Is holding a trackmeet
But I will not run
Someplace inside you a seed has been born
You′ve got to watch it grow
Someplace inside you a river is waiting to flow
Will you let it go?
Da da da, da da da, da da da
Some people tell you they're trapped in the distance
And can′t get what they want most
They throw a wall and then call for assistance
And make no attempt to get close
Oh, I think you should know
You've got to go slow below the surface
And easy through the waves
You better go slow below the surface
And easy through the waves
You′re running so fast that you can't find the past
And your future is wearing thin
Come from behind, it′s a matter of time
'Till you see where you've always been
Oh, I think you should know
You′ve got to go slow below the surface
And easy through the waves
You better go slow below the surface
And easy through the waves
Some people tell you they′re in trapped in the distance
And can't get what they want most
They throw up a wall and then call for assistance
And make no attempt to get close
Oh, I think you should know
You better go slow below the surface
And easy through the waves
You better go slow below the surface
And easy through the waves
You know that your life must have a purpose
You better make a stand while you still can
