Lyrics

[00:11.210] Have you seen the old man
[00:14.830] In the closed down market
[00:18.340] Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
[00:24.130] In his eyes you see no pride
[00:27.120] Hands held loosely at his side
[00:30.760] Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's news
[00:37.440] So how can you tell me you're lonely
[00:43.690] And say for you that the sun don't shine
[00:49.510] Let me take you by the hand
[00:52.350] And lead you through the streets of London
[00:56.440] I'll show you something
[00:59.60] To make you change your mind
[01:08.120] Have you seen the old girl
[01:10.890] Who walks the streets of London
[01:14.310] Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
[01:20.530] She's no time for talking
[01:23.400] She just keeps right on walking
[01:26.430] Carrying her home in two carrier bags
[01:34.300] So how can you tell me you're lonely
[01:41.200] And say for you that the sun don't shine
[01:46.979] Let me take you by the hand
[01:49.430] And lead you through the streets of London
[01:53.410] I'll show you something
[01:55.780] To make you change your mind
[02:11.460] In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven
[02:17.590] The same old man sitting there on his own
[02:23.829] Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
[02:29.980] Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone
[02:37.420] So how can you tell me you're lonely
[02:44.590] And say for you that the sun don't shine
[02:50.680] Let me take you by the hand
[02:53.79] And lead you through the streets of London
[02:57.150] I'll show you something
[02:59.550] To make you change your mind
[03:04.780] Have you seen the old man
[03:11.940] Outside the seaman's mission
[03:15.240] Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears
[03:21.490] In our winter city the rain cries little pity
[03:27.400] For one more forgotten hero
[03:30.490] And a world which doesn't care
[03:35.270] So how can you tell me you're lonely
[03:42.230] And say for you that the sun don't shine
[03:48.20] Let me take you by the hand
[03:50.700] And lead you through the streets of London
[03:55.100] I'll show you something
[03:57.460] To make you change your mind
