You've been searching high and low
Still so far to go
You've been searching everywhere
I know you care
Walking down the endless street
What will you meet?
Who knows?
Who knows?

You'll keep on searching 'til the very end
For one true lover and for one true friend
You'll get your answer on the whispering wind
When you find it
Just don't let go

Laughed with saints and cried with clowns
Lived that up and down
Walked out in the pouring rain
To stop your pain
Cried out on a mountain high
Why life goes by
Why love can die
Oh why?

You'll keep on searching 'til the very end
For one true lover and for one true friend
You'll get your answer on the whispering wind
When you find it
Just don't let go

Steven Lawrence Winwood is most famous for his solo work, including two number one hits Higher Love and Roll with It, and for being the member of two supergroups, Traffic and Blind Faith, along with helping found the Spencer Davis Group at fourteen years old.

Speaking of which, Mozart had nothing on Winwood as a keyboard

As a boy in middle school, little Stevie Winwood played the Hammond synth for Blues gods and Rock & Roll founders like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Howlin' Wolf, B.B. King, Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley, when they toured in Britain. We’d list more, but it’s exhausting to link all of those names.
