Melancholy Man
Composer(s): Mike Pinder
Performer(s): The Moody Blues



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 
´Coz 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) 
´Coz he can´t see what you and I can see (A very lonely man) 
(Repeat both verses together)
