| [00:12.110] | Have you seen the old man |
| [00:15.730] | In the closed down market |
| [00:19.240] | Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes |
| [00:25.30] | In his eyes you see no pride |
| [00:28.20] | Hands held loosely at his side |
| [00:31.660] | Yesterday＇s paper, telling yesterday＇s news |
| [00:38.339] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [00:44.589] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [00:50.409] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [00:53.249] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [00:57.339] | I＇ll show you something |
| [00:59.959] | To make you change your mind |
| [01:09.20] | Have you seen the old girl |
| [01:11.789] | Who walks the streets of London |
| [01:15.210] | Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags |
| [01:21.429] | She＇s no time for talking |
| [01:24.300] | She just keeps right on walking |
| [01:27.330] | Carrying her home in two carrier bags |
| [01:35.199] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [01:42.100] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [01:47.879] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [01:50.330] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [01:54.309] | I＇ll show you something |
| [01:56.679] | To make you change your mind |
| [02:12.360] | In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven |
| [02:18.490] | The same old man sitting there on his own |
| [02:24.730] | Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup |
| [02:30.880] | Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone |
| [02:38.320] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [02:45.490] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [02:51.580] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [02:53.980] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [02:58.50] | I＇ll show you something |
| [03:00.450] | To make you change your mind |
| [03:05.680] | Have you seen the old man |
| [03:12.840] | Outside the seaman＇s mission |
| [03:16.140] | Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears |
| [03:22.390] | In our winter city the rain cries little pity |
| [03:28.300] | For one more forgotten hero |
| [03:31.390] | And a world which doesn＇t care |
| [03:36.170] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [03:43.130] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [03:48.920] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [03:51.600] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [03:56.0] | I＇ll show you something |
| [03:58.360] | To make you change your mind |
