City lights and the pretty sights beckoned you to roam   Leavin? now and you?re knowin? how, you?re on your own   Family and reality seem so far away   Feelin? fine and the happy times have left you to stay      Oh shopping bag lady, asleep on the snow   If you had your fortune you?d trade it for a kind hello   Oh shopping bag lady, the winter winds blow   Society has forgotten you, there?s nowhere left for you to go      Through the tears, all your better years passin? by so fast   Loneliness is a part of you, and oh, how it lasts   No one there, there to really care, the city seems so cold   Yesterday you were just a child, today you?re so old      I would love to hold you   Nights when you?re alone   And the cold and dark is killin? you ever so slowly   I would love to love you   Nights when you?re alone, you?re alone      I know the days used to be something different for you   I know it?s cold and lonely and it?s misery   I wanna help you, I wanna help you, I wanna help you when you?re down   I wanna look around and find a helping hand for you      Oh no, it?s never too late   Oh no, it?s never too late to try and help you out   I know you?re cold and it?s misery   I can tell the days used to be something different for you
