[00:00.00] Blackmore's Night - Streets of London
[00:14.04] Have you seen the old man
[00:17.16] In the closed-down market
[00:20.82] Kicking up the paper,
[00:22.88] with his worn out shoes?
[00:27.13] In his eyes you see no pride
[00:30.38] And held loosely at his side
[00:33.82] Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news
[00:49.13] Have you seen the old girl
[00:51.55] Who walks the streets of London
[00:55.45] Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
[01:01.76] She's no time for talking,
[01:04.45] She just keeps right on walking
[01:08.80] Carrying her home in two carrier bags.
[01:17.53] In the all night cafe
[01:19.36] At a quarter past eleven,
[01:23.86] Same old man is sitting there on his own
[01:30.55] Looking at the world
[01:32.30] Over the rim of his tea-cup,
[01:37.08] Each tea last an hour
[01:39.62] Then he wanders home alone
[01:44.99] So how can you tell me you're lonely,
[01:52.60] And say for you that the sun don't shine?
[01:58.82] Let me take you by the hand
[02:01.95] and walk through the streets of London
[02:05.60] I'll show you something
[02:08.05] that make you change your mind
[02:27.32] And have you seen the old man
[02:29.36] Outside the seaman's mission
[02:33.42] Memory fading with
[02:36.70] The medal ribbons that he wears.
[02:40.11] In our winter city,
[02:42.67] The rain cries a little pity
[02:46.58] For one more forgotten hero
[02:49.63] And a world that doesn't care
[02:54.83] So how can you tell me you're lonely,
[03:02.27] And say for you that the sun don't shine?
[03:08.95] Let me take you by the hand
[03:11.52] and walk through the streets of London
[03:15.52] I'll show you something
[03:18.04] that make you change your mind
[03:24.14] Let me take you by the hand
[03:26.56] and walk through the streets of London
[03:30.48] I'll show you something
[03:33.39] that make you change your mind
