| [00:11.209] | Have you seen the old man |
| [00:14.830] | In the closed down market |
| [00:18.340] | Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes |
| [00:24.130] | In his eyes you see no pride |
| [00:27.120] | Hands held loosely at his side |
| [00:31.300] | Yesterday＇s paper, telling yesterday＇s news |
| [00:37.439] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [00:43.689] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [00:49.509] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [00:52.350] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [00:56.439] | I＇ll show you something |
| [00:59.600] | To make you change your mind |
| [01:08.120] | Have you seen the old girl |
| [01:10.890] | Who walks the streets of London |
| [01:14.310] | Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags |
| [01:20.530] | She＇s no time for talking |
| [01:23.400] | She just keeps right on walking |
| [01:26.430] | Carrying her home in two carrier bags |
| [01:34.300] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [01:41.200] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [01:46.979] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [01:49.429] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [01:53.410] | I＇ll show you something |
| [01:56.500] | To make you change your mind |
| [02:11.459] | In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven |
| [02:17.589] | The same old man sitting there on his own |
| [02:23.828] | Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup |
| [02:29.980] | Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone |
| [02:37.420] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [02:44.589] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [02:50.679] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [02:54.600] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [02:57.149] | I＇ll show you something |
| [02:59.549] | To make you change your mind |
| [03:05.500] | Have you seen the old man |
| [03:11.940] | Outside the seaman＇s mission |
| [03:15.239] | Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears |
| [03:21.489] | In our winter city the rain cries little pity |
| [03:27.399] | For one more forgotten hero |
| [03:30.489] | And a world which doesn＇t care |
| [03:35.269] | So how can you tell me you＇re lonely |
| [03:42.230] | And say for you that the sun don＇t shine |
| [03:48.200] | Let me take you by the hand |
| [03:50.700] | And lead you through the streets of London |
| [03:55.100] | I＇ll show you something |
