[00:00.00]Blackmore's Night - Streets of London
[00:12.54]
[00:14.54]Have you seen the old man
[00:17.66]In the closed-down market
[00:21.32]Kicking up the paper,
[00:23.38]with his worn out shoes?
[00:27.63]In his eyes you see no pride
[00:30.88]And held loosely at his side
[00:34.32]Yesterday's paper telling yesterday's news
[00:41.44]
[00:49.63]Have you seen the old girl
[00:52.05]Who walks the streets of London
[00:55.95]Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags?
[01:02.26]She's no time for talking,
[01:04.95]She just keeps right on walking
[01:09.30]Carrying her home in two carrier bags.
[01:16.47]
[01:18.03]In the all night cafe
[01:19.86]At a quarter past eleven,
[01:24.36]Same old man is sitting there on his own
[01:31.05]Looking at the world
[01:32.80]Over the rim of his tea-cup,
[01:37.58]Each tea last an hour
[01:40.12]Then he wanders home alone
[01:43.87]
[02:55.33][01:45.49]So how can you tell me you're lonely,
[03:02.77][01:53.10]And say for you that the sun don't shine?
[03:24.64][03:09.45][01:59.32]Let me take you by the hand
[03:27.06][03:12.02][02:02.45]and walk through the streets of London
[03:30.98][03:16.02][02:06.10]I'll show you something
[03:33.89][03:18.54][02:08.55]that make you change your mind
[03:40.29][03:22.36][02:12.91]
[02:27.82]And have you seen the old man
[02:29.86]Outside the seaman's mission
[02:33.92]Memory fading with
[02:37.20]The medal ribbons that he wears.
[02:40.61]In our winter city,
[02:43.17]The rain cries a little pity
[02:47.08]For one more forgotten hero
[02:50.13]And a world that doesn't care
[02:54.32]
[03:42.14]
[03:44.39]
