Man with the Sad Eyes, 
He never cries; 
Stores up burdens of his past, 
behind a wall of lies. 

Man with the Sad Eyes, 
Is easy to despise; 
Seems unspeakably clever, 
but is merely worldly-wise. 

Man with the Sad Eyes, 
Is never short of sighs; 
He's accustomed to Disappointment, 
and a stranger to Surprise. 

Man with the Sad Eyes, 
Learns to improvise; 
For the world was still so beautiful, 
Despite those tired, sad eyes.
