[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
