Jimmy Cliff - Take a Look at Yourself Lyrics

Take a good look take a good look
Take a look

When you look in the mirror
Tell me what do you see
Is it who you think you are or
Who you like to be
When you look at your shadow tell
Me what do you see?
Do you walk with a giant or
Do you crush a flea
We are nothing else but what we think we are
We can die in the morn or reaching for a star
So when your feeling down and out take
A look at yourself my friend
And if your still in doubt take
A look at yourself again
You got it in all inside you
Can run but please don't hide
Take a good look, take a good look
Take a look

Instrument playing

And when you're by yourself tell
Me what do you want
Do you want the things you have
Or want the things you can't
The heart was made to love
The mind to understand
You can be a puppet or you can be a man
We are nothing else but what we think we are
We can die in the morn or reaching for a star
So when your feeling down and out take
A look at yourself my friend
And if your still in doubt take
A look at yourself again
You got it in all inside you
Can run but please don't hide
Take a good look, take a good look
Take a look

Instrument playing

Take a look take a look
Take a look take a look
Take a look take a look
Take a look take a look

Feeling down and out
Take a look at yourself my friend
And if your still in doubt
Take a look at yourself again
You've got it all inside
You can run but please don't hide
Take a good look, Take a good look
Take a look
