Have you seen the old man in the closed down market Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes In his eyes you see no pride, hand held loosely at his side Yesterdays paper telling yesterdays news CHORUS 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 that will make you change your mind Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of london Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags Shes no time for talking she just keeps right on walking Carrying her home in two carrier bags CHORUS In the all night cafe, at a quarter past eleven, Same old man sitting there on his own Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup Each tea lasts an hour and he wanders home alone CHORUS Have you seen the old man, outside the seamans mission? Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears In our winter city the rain cries a little pity For one more forgotton hero and a world that doesnt't't't care CHORUS
