Lyrics

I was a stranger in the city
Out of town were the people I knew
I had that feeling of self-pity
What to do, what to do, what to do
The outlook was decidedly blue
And as I walked through the foggy streets alone
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
Foggy day in London town
Had me low and it had me down
I viewed the morning with much alarm
The British museum had lost its charm
How long, I wondered, could this thing last?
But the age of miracles hadn't passed
For suddenly, I saw you standing there
And in foggy London town, the sun was shining, everywhere
A foggy day in London town
Had me low and it had me down
I viewed the morning with much alarm
The British museum had lost its charm
How long, I wondered, could this thing last?
But the age of miracles hadn't passed
For suddenly, I saw you standing there
And in foggy London town, the sun was shining, everywhere
A foggy day in London town
Had me low and it had me down
I viewed the morning with much alarm
Say the British museum had lost its charm
How long, I wondered, could this thing last?
The age of miracles hadn't passed
For suddenly, I saw you standing there
And in foggy London town, the sun was shining, everywhere
