[00:15.33] Have you seen the old man,

[00:18.57] in the closed-down market

[00:23.07] kicking up the papers,

[00:26.57] with his worn-out shoes?

[00:30.82] In his eyes, you'd see no pride,

[00:35.07] handheld loosely by his side

[00:39.57] yesterday's papers, telling yesterday's news

[00:48.82] So how can you tell me, you're lonely

[00:57.32] And say for you the sun won't shine?

[01:04.82] Let me take you by the hand,

[01:08.57] and lead you through the streets of London

[01:13.33] I'll show you something,

[01:15.96] to make you change your mind

[01:22.85] Have you seen the old girl,

[01:26.35] who walks the streets of London

[01:31.10] dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?

[01:38.10] She's no time for talking,

[01:42.35] She just keeps right on walking

[01:47.10] Carrying her home, in two carrier bags

[01:56.85] So how can you tell me, you're lonely

[02:04.85] And say for you the sun won't shine?

[02:11.85] Let me take you by the hand,

[02:15.85] and lead you through the streets of London

[02:20.61] I'll show you something,

[02:24.10] to make you change your mind

[02:45.10] In the all-night cafe,

[02:48.35] at a quarter past eleven

[02:52.60] same old man sitting there, on his own

[03:00.10] Looking at the world,

[03:03.10] over the rim of his tea-cup

[03:07.85] Each tea lasts an hour,

[03:11.35] then he wanders home alone

[03:17.35] So how can you tell me, you're lonely

[03:26.10] and say for you the sun won't shine?

[03:32.85] Let me take you by the hand,

[03:36.85] and lead you through the streets of London

[03:41.60] I'll show you something,

[03:44.60] to make you change your mind

[03:55.10] I'll show you something,

[03:58.35] to make you change your mind
