CORRECT LYRICS
Have you seen the old man down by the closed down market
Kicking up papers with old, worn out shoes
In his eyes you see no pride
And held so loosely by his side
Yesterday's papers, yesterday's news
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes all in rags
She's got no time for talkin'
She just keeps right on walkin'
Carrying her home in two carrier bags
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
In the all-night cafe and a quarter past eleven
Same old man sitting there all on his own
Gazing at the world
Past the rim of his teacup
Each tea lasts an hour, then he wanders on alone
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
Have you seen the old man down by the seaman's mission
Memory fading like the medals that he wears
In our winter city
The rain cries little pity
One more forgotten hero in a world that doesn't care
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your—
How can you say that you're lonely (mind)
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
Lyrics : Streets of London
Have you seen the old man down by the closed down market
Kicking up papers with old, worn out shoes
In his eyes you see no pride
And held so loosely by his side
Yesterday's papers, yesterday's news
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
Dirt in her hair and her clothes all in rags
She's got no time for talkin'
She just keeps right on walkin'
Carrying her home in two carrier bags
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
In the all-night cafe and a quarter past eleven
Same old man sitting there all on his own
Gazing at the world
Past the rim of his teacup
Each tea lasts an hour, then he wanders on alone
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
Have you seen the old man down by the seaman's mission
Memory fading like the medals that he wears
In our winter city
The rain cries little pity
One more forgotten hero in a world that doesn't care
And how can you say that you're lonely
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your—
How can you say that you're lonely (mind)
And say for you the sun don't shine
Let me take you by the hand
And lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you somethin' to make you change your mind
