Have you seen the old man In the closed down market Kicking up the paper, with his worn out shoes In his eyes you see no pride And held loosely by his side Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news So how can you tell me you're lonely And say for you that the sun don't shine? Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something, to make you change your mind Have you seen the old gal Who walks the streets of London Dirt in her hair and her clothes are in rags She's no time for talking, She just 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? Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something, to make you change your mind And in the all night cafe Letras de cancionesat a quarter past eleven Same old man is sitting there all on his own Looking at the world over the rim of his tea-cup each tea last an hour Then he wanders home alone So how can you tell me you're lonely And say for you that the sun don't shine? Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something, to make you change your mind And have you seen the old man Outside the seaman's mission His memory is fading, With those medal ribbons he wears And 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? Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London I'll show you something, to make you change your mind From Letras Mania
