[00:16.55] Have you seen the old man, in the closed-down market
[00:25.12] Kicking up the papers, with his worn-out shoes?
[00:32.55] In his eyes you'd see no pride, hand held loosely by his side
[00:41.23] Yesterday's papers, telling yesterday's news
[00:50.49] So how can you tell me, you're lonely
[00:59.19] And say for you the sun won't shine?
[01:06.31] Let me take you by the hand,
[01:10.31] And lead you through the streets of London
[01:14.88] I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
[01:24.21] Have you seen the old girl, who walks the streets of London
[01:33.19] Dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?
[01:40.16] She's no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking
[01:48.75] Carrying her home, in two carrier bags
[01:57.99] So how can you tell me, you're lonely
[02:06.86] And say for you the sun won't shine?
[02:13.85] Let me take you by the hand,
[02:18.11] And lead you through the streets of London
[02:22.20] I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
[02:46.83] In the all-night cafe, at a quarter past eleven
[02:54.67] Same old man sitting there, on his own
[03:01.87] Looking at the world, over the rim of his tea-cup
[03:09.95] Each tea lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone
[03:19.05] So how can you tell me, you're lonely
[03:28.05] And say for you the sun won't shine?
[03:34.75] Let me take you by the hand,
[03:38.75] And lead you through the streets of London
[03:42.82] I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
[03:56.33] I'll show you something, to make you change your mind
