I chased your ghost along the Thames
I didn't see you
From Charing Cross down to Mile End
I didn't see you

The lovers, loners, suits and tourists passed me by
Along those twenty thousand streets beneath the sky

The crowds poured out from theatre bars
I didn't see you
While black cabs waited for the stars
I didn't see you

I crossed the road past the Palladium with a sigh
And cursed those twenty thousand streets beneath the sky

And as the rain fell down on Shaftesbury Avenue
I searched with nothing but the memory of you
I scanned a thousand faceless faces in the rain
And wondered if I'd ever see those eyes again

The nightingale began to sing
I didn't see you
The Midnight Bell began to ring
I didn't see you

But in the distance I could hear the barmaid cry
Lamenting twenty thousand streets beneath the sky

And as the rain fell down on Shaftesbury Avenue
I searched with nothing but the memory of you
I scanned a thousand faceless faces in the rain
And wondered if I'd ever see those eyes again
