| [00:12.60] |
Have you seen the old man |
| [00:14.57] |
In the closed down market |
| [00:16.56] |
Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes |
| [00:21.92] |
In his eyes you see no pride |
| [00:25.77] |
Hands held loosely at his side |
| [00:28.79] |
Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news |
| [00:35.02] |
So how can you tell me you're lonely |
| [00:41.32] |
And say for you that the sun don't shine |
| [00:47.51] |
Let me take you by the hand |
| [00:52.03] |
And lead you through the streets of London |
| [00:54.87] |
I'll show you something |
| [00:58.14] |
To make you change your mind |
| [01:00.15] |
Have you seen the old girl |
| [01:09.01] |
Who walks the streets of London |
| [01:11.66] |
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags |
| [01:17.36] |
She's no time for talking |
| [01:20.74] |
She just keeps right on walking |
| [01:23.70] |
Carrying her home in two carrier bags |
| [01:29.53] |
So how can you tell me you're lonely |
| [01:36.89] |
And say for you that the sun don't shine |
| [01:42.53] |
Let me take you by the hand |
| [01:47.14] |
And lead you through the streets of London |
| [01:50.87] |
I'll show you something |
| [01:53.12] |
To make you change your mind |
| [01:55.71] |
In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven |
| [02:13.66] |
The same old man sitting there on his own |
| [02:20.46] |
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup |
| [02:25.83] |
Each tea lasts an hour and he wanders home alone |
| [02:31.81] |
So how can you tell me that you're lonely |
| [02:38.83] |
And say for you that the sun don't shine |
| [02:44.87] |
Let me take you by the hand |
| [02:49.42] |
And lead you through the streets of London |
| [02:52.81] |
I'll show you something |
| [02:55.23] |
To make you change your mind |
| [02:57.99] |
And have you seen the old man |
| [03:07.59] |
Outside the seaman's mission |
| [03:09.35] |
Memory fading with |
| [03:13.08] |
The medal ribbons that he wears |
| [03:16.12] |
In our winter city |
| [03:18.82] |
The rain cries a little pity |
| [03:22.25] |
For one more forgotten hero |
| [03:24.83] |
And a world that doesn't care |
| [03:28.29] |
So how can you tell me that you're lonely |
| [03:31.62] |
And say for you that the sun don't shine |
| [03:41.87] |
Let me take you by the hand |
| [03:45.99] |
And lead you through the streets of London |
| [03:49.76] |
I'll show you something |
| [03:51.85] |
To make you change your mind |
