A Foggy Day

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 dreary streets alone It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known 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 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? 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 - Dinah Washington
