Here Are The Lyrics:
Have you seen the old man outside the closed down market
He's kicking up the paper with his worn out shoes ?
In his eyes you'll see no pride and loosely held by his side
Is yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news.

How can you tell me you're lonely and say  for you that the sun doesn'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.

Have you seen the old girl who walks the streets of London
There's dirt in her hair and her clothes are all in rags ?
She's no time for talking she just keeps right on walking
Carrying her home in two carrier bags.

How can you tell me you're lonely and that your sun it doesn't shine ?
Let me take you by the hand, I"ll lead you through the streets of London
I'll show you something to make you change your mind.

In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven 
The same old man sitting there on his own
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup 
Each tea lasts an hour then he wanders home alone.

So how can you tell me  you're lonely and for you the  sun doesn'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.

Have you seen the old man outside the seaman's mission
His memory now is 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.

How can you tell me you're lonely and  that the sun it doesn'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.
