I've seen the rain pourin' down The sky was grey with a speck of blue there Peeked through a hole in the clouds The sun was screaming hey you there As you ramble through your sorrows As if everything is wrong I'm livin' in (a) yesterdays tomorrow I know something's helping me 'long I'll take a melody And see what I can do about it I'll take a simple D to E and feel brand new about it I understand why The old fishermen sail alone Sail alone, sail alone 'Cause some day you'll be gone I've heard you talkin' 'bout your troubles Well, everybody's got their troubles too You can make them burst like bubbles If you know just what to do I've been called a dreamer dreams That never will come true Well, I've been called so many things before I tell you what I'm gonna do I'll take a melody And see what I can do about it I'll take a simple D to E and feel brand new about it I understand why The old fishermen sail alone Sail alone, sail alone 'Cause some day you'll be gone I'll take a melody And see what I can do about it I'll take a sing On sing, on sing a song along What I can do about it Doh ray me fah soh la tea Listen to my melody Hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo What I can do about it, ooh.
