[Verse 1] I walked the streets from LSE Where London kept its memories The winter sky was turning grey As all the crowds just slipped away I stood above the river's flow And watched the city lights below The cold wind whispered through the rain And brought an old love back again [Pre-Chorus] Big Ben was ringing through the night Westminster faded out of sight And somewhere in the drifting rain I heard her calling out his name [Chorus] On Waterloo Bridge tonight I watch the city come alive The rain keeps falling, years go by But something here still feels like mine On Waterloo Bridge again I hear the echoes in the rain Some leave their love, some leave their youth And I left part of mine here too [Verse 2] The South Bank lights were shining low Their golden shadows moved below The traffic passed behind my back Like all the years we can't bring back She walked alone into the night Believing love was out of sight And though her story wasn't mine I felt her sorrow crossing time [Pre-Chorus] Some hearts are broken by goodbye Some dreams are never meant to fly And far away from home that year I found my own reflection here [Chorus] On Waterloo Bridge tonight I watch the city come alive The rain keeps falling, years go by But something here still feels like mine On Waterloo Bridge again I hear the echoes in the rain Some leave their love, some leave their youth And I left part of mine here too [Bridge] And if I walk this bridge someday When all my youth has slipped away Will London wear the same old rain? Will I become that boy again? Some leave their love upon this bridge Some leave their youth beside the Thames And all the words we never said Are carried where the river bends [Final Chorus] On Waterloo Bridge tonight I watch the city come alive The rain keeps falling, years go by But something here still feels like mine On Waterloo Bridge again I hear the echoes in the rain Some leave their love, some leave their youth And I left part of mine here too [Outro] The winter rain falls soft and slow Upon the Thames so far below And somewhere in the evening mist I'm young on Waterloo Bridge
