Oh, why don't you show Why must you hide What you can't keep inside Is it your pride? Just let it go Now you just let it go For once in your life You've got to do what you can When it's all in your hands Start to make plans Hope and understand Be your own man Just be your own man For once in your life Time to turn around Time to face the crowd No matter what they say You make it yours today You've got to take the weight You've got to take the strain And you know that nothing else will do You know nothing else can be You've got to make a new start With a whole change of heart Turn over a new leaf And a little belief You will make a start You will make a start The rest of your life You've got to make the first move Got nothing to lose Got the whole world to gain Rekindle your flame And just let it burn Now you just let it burn For once in your life Time to turn around Time to face the crowd No matter what they say You make it yours today You've got to take the reigns You've got to take the strain And you know that nothing else will do You know nothing else can do And so the story is told Passed on by the old About the slave who was sold By the man whos hearts cold He buries the hold And I know he can't halt The rest of his life He buries the hold And I know he can't halt The rest of his life Time to turn around Time to face the crowd No matter what they say You make it yours today Time to turn around Yes it's time to turn around Time to face the crowd
