[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 |
