What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Some people say that I'm a melancholy man
2
When all is said and done
3
It's just the way I am
4
The sun is blazing as I wander into town
5
A long grey overcoat which trails along the ground
6
And when I'm walking past the children in the park
7
They stop their games, they shout my name
8
And run behind my back
9
If only they could see how happy I can be
10
But sometimes they must look away
11
Or so it seems to me
12
I think I'll always be a melancholy man
13
I know when all is said and done
14
It's just the way I am
15
But if you have the time
16
Please listen while you can
17
Does anybody understand?
18
I'll always be a melancholy man
19
The sky is blue today
20
Here in your nowhere land
21
And how are you today, my melancholy man?
22
You saw us looking through a window of a bus
23
We smiled at you but you didn't smile at us
24
And when you're old and grey
25
Your days are at an end
26
You'll wish that you had someone who
27
You could call a friend
28
Yet only I can see how happy you can be
29
Oh, sometimes they must look away
30
Or so it seems to me
31
I think I'll always be a melancholy man
32
I know when all is said and done
33
It's just the way I am
34
But if you have the time
35
Please listen while you can
36
Does anybody understand?
37
I'll always be a melancholy man
38
When all is said and done, my melancholy man
39
The sky is blue today, my melancholy man
40
"And when no hope was left in sight
41
On that starry, starry night
42
You took your life as lovers often do
43
But I could have told you, Vincent
44
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you"
45
As beautiful as you, my melancholy man
