Melancholy Music Man

Hear the music playing, what makes it sound that way

Look who's now appearing and sharing his feelings in that roadside cafe

Though he won't find fortune or fame, he's not that kind

To him it's all the same

He's the melancholy music man, but he don't mind

I can hardly hear him, the laughter fills the air

They didn't come to see him, they'll never cheer him

Don't even know his name

But I don't care he's playing for me, and he'll play my favorite melody

He's the melancholy music man, but he don't mind

Just take you time, keep on playing

And back to the way

Just for me, (just for me) won't you please (won't you please)

Won't you please (won't you please) play for me (play for me)
