| 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 |
| When all the stars are falling down |

| Another man is what you’ll see |

| All the world surrounds me |
| 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, just you wait and see |
| Believe me, believe me, believe me |
| I’m a melancholy man |
