Lyrics
I was a stranger in the city
I felt unfamiliar in the city.
Out of town were the people I knew
The people I knew were not around.
I had that feeling of self-pity
I experienced a sense of feeling sorry for myself.
What to do, what to do, what to do
I was uncertain about what actions to take.
The outlook was decidedly blue
The overall perspective seemed gloomy or sad.
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
Despite walking alone in the foggy streets,
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
This day unexpectedly turned out to be very fortunate.
A foggy day, in London town
A day with foggy weather in London.
Had me low, had me down
The foggy day made me feel unhappy or depressed.
I viewed the morning, with much alarm
I observed the morning with a feeling of alarm or concern.
British Museum, had lost its charm
The British Museum had lost its appeal or interest for me.
How long I wondered,
I pondered about the duration of this situation.
Could this thing last
I questioned how long this feeling would persist.
But the age of miracles, hadn't past
I believed that extraordinary things could still happen.
For suddenly, I saw you there
I suddenly noticed your presence.
And through foggy London town,
Despite the foggy London, your presence brought brightness.
The sun was shining everywhere
Your presence made it seem like the sun was shining everywhere in the foggy city.
For suddenly, I saw you there
I suddenly noticed your presence.
And through foggy London town,
Despite the foggy London, your presence brought brightness.
The sun was shining everywhere
Your presence made it seem like the sun was shining everywhere in the foggy city.
Everywhere
Emphasizes the pervasive effect of your presence.
Everywhere
Reiterates the widespread impact of your presence.
Everywhere
Highlights the all-encompassing nature of your presence.
