LYRICS

Verse 1
======
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. Yesterday’s paper telling yesterday’s 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 to make you change your mind.

Verse 2
======
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 talkin’, she just keeps right on walkin’,
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

CHORUS .........

Verse 3
======
And in the all night café at a quarter past eleven, same
old man sitting there on his own. Looking at the world
over the rim of his teacup, as each tea lasts an hour
and he wanders home alone.

CHORUS .........

Verse 4
======
Have you seen the old man outside the seaman’s
mission, memory fading with the medal ribbons that he
wears? In our winter city the rain cries a little pity. For
one more forgotten hero and a world that doesn’t care.

CHORUS .........
