Have you see the old man
in the closeddown market
kicking up the papers
with his wornout shoes?
In his eyes you see no paper
Hand held loosely by his side
Yesterday's paper
telling yester's news
So how can you tell me
you're lonely
And say for you that the sun
don't shine
oh,let me take
you by the hand
And lead you though
the streets of London
I'll show you something
to make you change you'r mind

Haveyou see the old girl
who wales
the streets of London
Dirt in her hair
And her clothes in rags
She's no time for talkin'
she keeps right on walking
Carrying her home
in two carrier bags
So how can you tell me
you're lonely
And say for you that the sun
don't shine
oh,let me take
you by the hand
And lead you though
the streets of London
I'll show you something
to make you change you'r mind

In the all night cafe
at a guater past eleven
same olt man,
sitting there on hisown
Looking at the world
over the rim of his tea cup
Each tea lasts an hour
And he wanders home, alone
So how can you tell me
you're lonely
And say for you that the sun
don't shine
oh,let me take
you by the hand
And lead you though
the streets of London
I'll show you something
to make you change you'r mind

Have you see the old man
out side the seamen's mission
Memory fading
with the medal ribbons
city where
In our winter city
the rain cries a little pity
For one more forgotten hero
And a world that doesn't care
So how can you tell me
you're lonely
And say for you that the sun
don't shine
oh,let me take
you by the hand
And lead you though
the streets of London
I'll show you something
to make you change you'r mind…[start]../song/1/1328.MID[stop]
