I'm a melancholy man
that's what I am
All the world surrounds me
and my feet are on the ground
I'm a very lonely man
doing what I can
All the world astounds me
and I think I understand
That we're going to keep growing
wait and see
When all the stars
are falling down
Into the sea and on the ground
And angry voices carry
on the wind
A beam of light will fill
your head
And you'll remember
what's been said
By all the good men
this world's ever known
Another man is what you'll see
Who looks like you
and looks like me
And yet somehow he
will not feel the same
His life caught up in misery
he doesn't think like you and me
'Cause he can't see
what you and I can see

He doesn't think

'Coz he can't see
what you and I can see
I'm a melancholy man
that's what I am
