A Foggy Day
Discovering Sunshine in London's Fog: A Tale of Serendipity
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 out of town
I had that feeling of self-pity
I experienced a sense of self-pity
What to do, what to do, what to do
Feeling uncertain about what to do
The outlook was decidedly blue
The overall situation seemed depressing
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
Walking alone through foggy streets
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
Unexpectedly, it became the luckiest day
A foggy day, in London town
Describing the weather on that day in London
Had me low, had me down
The weather made the speaker feel low
I viewed the morning, with much alarm
Expressing concern while observing the morning
British Museum, had lost its charm
Suggesting the British Museum lost its appeal
How long I wondered,
Contemplating how long the situation would persist
Could this thing last
Questioning the duration of the negative feelings
But the age of miracles, hadn't past
Believing in the possibility of miracles
For suddenly, I saw you there
Encountering someone unexpectedly
And through foggy London town,
Despite the fog, seeing the person in London
The sun was shining everywhere
Turning the gloomy day into a bright one
For suddenly, I saw you there
Reiterating the unexpected encounter
And through foggy London town,
Reaffirming seeing the person in London
The sun was shining everywhere
Emphasizing the transformation of the weather
Everywhere
Reiterating the idea of brightness everywhere
Everywhere
Expressing the pervasive positive atmosphere
Everywhere
Underlining the ubiquity of sunshine
