Have you seen the old man in the closed down market,
kicking up the paper with worn out shoes ?
In his eyes you see no pride, and held loosely at his side,
Yesterdays paper telling yesterdays news.So how can you tell me youre lonely, and say, for you that the sun dont shine ?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you though the streets of London,
Ill show you something to make you change your mind.Have you seen the old girl who walks to the streets of London,
dirt in her hair and her clothes just in rags?
Shes no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking,
Carrying here home in two carrier bagsSo how can you tell me youre lonely, and say, for you that the sun dont shine ?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you though the streets of London,
Ill show you something to make you change your mind.In the all-night cafe at a quarter past eleven,
same old man sitting there on his ownLooking at the world over the rim of him tea-cup,
Each tea lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone.So how can you tell me youre lonely, and say, for you that the sun dont shine ?
Let me take you by the hand and lead you though the streets of London,
Ill show you something to make you change your mind.
