I walked down by the Thames
Vauxhall to Lambeth bridge
And as I walk I see Big Ben
Winking his eye at me
He looks down and he gives a smile
Trying to be grand and strong
But I can tell and I know all the while
Tonight he"s feeling lonely too
I look down into the lapping water
That"s dark and black
When I look up, I see a man standing all alone
And he too is looking into the water
That"s dark and black
What are you thinking of, man?
What are you searching for?
I hope you find your answer
But I don"t think you"ll find it there
But, where?
Where are you going to find what you"re looking for?
If I take a breath and I keep it locked inside of me
And I don"t let go till I see your image before me
If I directed all my thoughts and the essence of life towards you
Do you think that it might reach you?
I"m only trying to help you
I"m only wanting for you to feel much better
Cause I know you"re feeling alone and blue
As I walk on down by the river
Vauxhall to Lambeth bridge
I think of you, as I"m watching Big Ben
And I see he"s crying too
Vauxhall to Lambeth bridge
And as I walk I see Big Ben
Winking his eye at me
He looks down and he gives a smile
Trying to be grand and strong
But I can tell and I know all the while
Tonight he"s feeling lonely too
I look down into the lapping water
That"s dark and black
When I look up, I see a man standing all alone
And he too is looking into the water
That"s dark and black
What are you thinking of, man?
What are you searching for?
I hope you find your answer

Where are you going to find what you"re looking for?
