Sometimes sad for the way it's grown

Ranging up and ranging out

And trying to change my ways about



There's a place in the leaf, a place in the bough

Found a place for me just now, just now, just now



Moving on with every word

Moving with all the words I've heard

Turning the wheel to make me a man



There's a man in the moon, a man in the sun

Growing strong, there's a man in me just now, just now, just now



No behind and no before

There's no need to worry any more

Happy then, happy now

There's always a way to get happy somehow



Friend on the road, a friend in the home

A better friend now than I've ever known just now, just now, just now



Searching back for the friends I've known

Sometimes sad for the way it's grown

Changing up and ranging out

And trying to change my ways about
