Have you seen the old man 你曾见过那位老人吗
In the closed down market 在市场打烊后
Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes 拖着他破烂的鞋子踢着被丢弃的报纸
In his eyes you see no pride 在他的眼睛里你看不到自豪的神采
Hands held loosely at his side 双手散漫的垂在身旁
Yesterday's paper, telling yesterday's news 过期的报纸上,写着过期的新闻
So how can you tell me you're lonely 所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine 说太阳都不肯为你散发光亮
Let me take you by the hand 让我牵着你的手
And lead you through the streets of London 带着你走过伦敦的街头吧
I'll show you something 让你看看那儿发生的事情
To make you change your mind 它们将会改变你想法
Have you seen the old girl 你可见过那年华不再的女子
Who walks the streets of London 姗姗走过伦敦的街头
Dirt in her hair and her clothes in rags 披着她灰脏的头发和碎破的衣服
She's no time for talking 她没有空儿停下来聊点什么
She just keeps right on walking 就只是一劲儿向前走着
Carrying her home in two carrier bags 带着两只旅行包,那是她的全部家当
So how can you tell me you're lonely 所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine 说太阳都不肯为你散发光亮
Let me take you by the hand 让我牵着你的手
And lead you through the streets of London 带着你走过伦敦的街头吧
I'll show you something 让你看看那儿发生的事情
To make you change your mind 它们将会改变你想法
In the old night cafe at a quarter past eleven 十一点一刻,古旧的咖啡夜店里
The same old man sitting there on his own 还是那同一个老人独自坐在那儿
Looking at the world over the rim of his teacup 越过他茶杯的边缘看着这个世界
Each tea lasts an hour, and he wanders home alone 每一杯他都会喝一个小时,然后拖着孤独的脚步回家
So how can you tell me you're lonely 所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine 说太阳都不肯为你散发光亮
Let me take you by the hand 让我牵着你的手
And lead you through the streets of London 带着你走过伦敦的街头吧
I'll show you something 让你看看那儿发生的事情
To make you change your mind 它们将会改变你想法
Have you seen the old man 你曾见过那位老人吗
Outside the seaman's mission 当他结束了在海上漂泊的生涯
Memory fading with the minor ribands that he wears 记忆正如他佩戴的缎带一般慢慢褪色
In our winter city the rain cries a little pity 在这个城市的冬季,细雨呜咽出辛酸的惋惜
For one more forgotten hero 为这被遗忘的英雄
And a world which doesn't care 和冷漠的世界
So how can you tell me you're lonely 所以你怎么能告诉我你是孤独的呢
And say for you that the sun don't shine 说太阳都不肯为你散发光亮
Let me take you by the hand 让我牵着你的手
And lead you through the streets of London 带着你走过伦敦的街头吧
I'll show you something 让你看看那儿发生的事情
To make you change your mind 它们将会改变你想法
