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,
'Cos he can't see what you and I can 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, A melancholy man
'Cos he can't see what you and I can see A very lonely man

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,
'Cos he can't see what you and I can see
