Streets of London

[00:00.00]Streets Of London - 许冠杰
[00:00.00]Written by:Ralph McTell
[00:13.00]Have you seen the old man
[00:16.00]In the closed-down market
[00:19.00]Kicking up the papers
[00:22.00]With his worn out shoes
[00:25.00]In his eyes you see no pride
[00:28.00]Hand held loosely at his side
[00:32.00]Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news
[00:39.00]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[00:46.00]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[00:51.00]Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
[00:58.00]I'll show you something to make you change your mind
[01:10.00]Have you seen the old dear who walks the streets of London
[01:16.00]Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags
[01:22.00]She's no time for talking she just keeps right on walking
[01:29.00]Carrying her home in two carrier bags
[01:36.00]So how can you tell me you're lonely
[01:43.00]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[01:48.00]Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
[01:55.00]I'll show you something to make you change your mind
[02:13.00]In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven
[02:20.00]Same old man sitting there on his own
[02:26.00]Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup
[02:31.00]And each tea lasts an hour and he wanders home alone
[02:39.00]Have you seen the old man
[02:42.00]Outside the Seaman's Mission
[02:45.00]Memory fading with the medals that he wears
[02:51.00]In our winter city
[02:54.00]The rain cries a little pity
[02:57.00]For one more forgotten hero
[03:00.00]And a world that doesn't care
[03:05.00]So how can you tell me that you're lonely
[03:12.00]And say for you that the sun don't shine
[03:18.00]Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
[03:24.00]I'll show you something to make you change your mind
