Streets of London - Sinéad O'Connor [00:00:01]

Have you seen the old man, in the closed-down market[00:00:12]

Kicking up the papers, with his worn-out shoes?[00:00:17]

In his eyes you'd see no pride, hand held loosely by his side[00:00:23]

Yesterday's papers, telling yesterday's news[00:00:30]

So how can you tell me, you're lonely[00:00:37]

And say for you the sun won't shine?[00:00:43]

Let me take you by the hand,[00:00:49]

And lead you through the streets of London[00:00:52]

I'll show you something, to make you change your mind[00:00:56]

Have you seen the old girl, who walks the streets of London[00:01:08]

Dirt in her hair, and her clothes in rags?[00:01:14]

She's no time for talking, she just keeps right on walking[00:01:20]

Carrying her home, in two carrier bags[00:01:26]

So how can you tell me, you're lonely[00:01:33]

And say for you the sun won't shine?[00:01:40]

Let me take you by the hand,[00:01:46]

And lead you through the streets of London[00:01:49]

I'll show you something, to make you change your mind[00:01:53]

In the all-night cafe, at a quarter past eleven[00:02:11]

Same old man sitting there, on his own[00:02:17]

Looking at the world, over the rim of his tea-cup[00:02:23]

Each tea lasts an hour, then he wanders home alone[00:02:30]

So how can you tell me, you're lonely[00:02:37]

And say for you the sun won't shine?[00:02:44]

Let me take you by the hand,[00:02:50]

And lead you through the streets of London[00:02:53]

I'll show you something, to make you change your mind[00:02:57]

Have you seen the old man outside the Seaman's Mission[00:03:08]

Memory fading with the medal ribbons that he wears [00:03:14]

In our winter city, the rain cries little pity,[00:03:21]

For one more forgotten hero, and a world that doesn't care[00:03:26]

So how can you tell me, you're lonely [00:03:34]

And say for you that the sun doesn't shine?[00:03:41]

Let me take you by the hand, [00:03:47]

And lead you through the streets of London[00:03:50]

I'll show you something, to make you change your mind[00:03:54]
