You'd hear the patter of his feet
as he came toppling down the street
His smile would hide a lonely heart you see
If [Em] there were sweethearts in the park
we'd pass a laugh and live a dark
Remembering the days that used to be

He loves someone who loved him too
Who walks with [A] him a lonely [D] memory
He [G] made the night
[D] [F#] wherever he [Bm] would go
[D] [G] The old light
[Bm] [A]

He turns them on when night is here
He turns them off when dawn is near
The little man we loved so long ago
