Walk On By 歌詞

Have you seen the old man in the closed down market? Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes In his eyes you see no pride Hand held losely by his side Yesterday's paper's telling yesterday's news Refrain: So how can you tell me You're lonely And say for you the sun don'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 Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags She's no time for talking She just keeps right on walking Carrying her home in two carrier bags Rafrain In the all night cafe at a quarter past eleven Same old man's sitting there on his own Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup Each tea lasts an hour and he wanders home alone Refrain Have you seen the old man outside the seaman's mission Memory 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 Refrain
