The Streets Of London |
Have you seen the old man |
In the closed-down market |
Kicking up the papers in his worn out shoes? |
In his eyes you see no pride |
Hands held loosely by his side |
Yesterday’s papers telling yesterday’s news |
And have you seen the old girl |
Who walks the streets of London |
Dirt in her hair and her clothes 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 |
In the all night cafe |
At a quarter past eleven |
That same old man is sitting there on his own |
Looking at the world |
Over the rim of his tea cup |
Each tea lasts an hour then he wanders home alone |
Have you seen the old man |
Outside the seaman’s mission |
Memory fading like the medal ribbons that he wears |
And in our winter city |
The rain it 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 |
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 |
