[00:00.00]Cynthia Hemingway - Streets Of London
[00:00.10]Written by:Ralph McTell
[00:00.45]Have you seen the old man
[00:02.67]In the closed down market
[00:05.81]Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
[00:11.46]In his eyes you see no pride
[00:14.09]Hands held loosely at his side
[00:17.39]Yesterdays paper telling yesterday's news
[00:23.55]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[00:29.53]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[00:34.86]Let me take you by the hand
[00:37.26]And lead you through the streets of london
[00:40.46]I'll show you something
[00:42.58]To make you change your mind
[00:51.17]Have you seen the old girl
[00:53.55]Who walks the streets of london
[00:56.71]Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
[01:02.13]Shes no time for talking
[01:04.65]She just keeps right on walking
[01:07.67]Carrying her home in two carrier bags
[01:14.33]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[01:20.63]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[01:25.75]Let me take you by the hand
[01:28.11]And lead you through the streets of london
[01:31.47]I'll show you something
[01:33.59]To make you change your mind
[01:47.76]In the old night cafe
[01:50.06]At a quarter past eleven
[01:52.83]The same old man
[01:55.29]Sitting there on his own
[01:58.77]Looking at the world over the rim of his tea cup
[02:04.18]Each tea lasts an hour
[02:06.66]And he wanders home alone
[02:10.82]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[02:17.07]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[02:22.22]Let me take you by the hand
[02:24.63]And lead you through the streets of london
[02:27.96]I'll show you something
[02:30.10]To make you change your mind
[02:39.81]Have you seen the old man
[02:41.00]Outside the seaman's mission have you see
[02:44.83]Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears
[02:51.11]In our winter city
[02:52.08]The rain cries a little pity
[02:55.89]For one more forgotten hero
[02:58.03]And a world that doesn't care
[03:01.65]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[03:08.17]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[03:13.22]Let me take you by the hand
[03:15.62]And lead you through the streets of london
[03:18.88]I'll show you something
[03:21.05]To make you change your mind
[03:29.85]Let me take you by the hand
[03:32.37]And lead you through the streets of london
[03:35.63]I'll show you something
[03:37.75]To make you change your mind
