A Foggy Day
Embracing Sunshine in Foggy London: A Tale of Unexpected Joy
Lyrics
I was a stranger in the city
The speaker felt like an outsider or unfamiliar in the city.
Out of town were the people I knew
The people known to the speaker were not around in the city.
I had that feeling of self-pity
The speaker experienced a sense of feeling sorry for themselves.
What to do, what to do, what to do
Expressing uncertainty or confusion about what actions to take.
The outlook was decidedly blue
The overall perspective or situation seemed pessimistic or sad.
But as I walked through the foggy streets alone
While walking alone in the foggy streets,
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
The day turned out to be surprisingly fortunate for the speaker.
A foggy day, in London town
Describing the setting of a foggy day in London.
Had me low, had me down
The foggy weather affected the speaker's mood negatively.
I viewed the morning, with much alarm
The speaker was worried or concerned upon viewing the morning.
British Museum, had lost its charm
The renowned British Museum seemed uninteresting or dull to the speaker.
How long I wondered,
The speaker pondered how long the situation would persist.
Could this thing last
Questioning whether this negative phase would continue.
But the age of miracles, hadn't past
Belief that extraordinary things can still happen.
For suddenly, I saw you there
The speaker suddenly noticed someone significant.
And through foggy London town,
Despite the fog, the presence of this person brightened the atmosphere.
The sun was shining everywhere
Metaphorically, the speaker saw happiness or positivity despite the gloomy setting.
For suddenly, I saw you there
Reiteration of suddenly noticing the person.
And through foggy London town,
Despite the fog, this person's presence continued to bring brightness.
The sun was shining everywhere
Emphasizing the pervasive positivity despite the foggy environment.
Everywhere
Emphasizing the ubiquity of the positive feeling.
Everywhere
Further emphasizing the pervasiveness of positivity.
Everywhere
Continued emphasis on the widespread positivity despite the fog.
