A Foggy Day
Embracing Light in London 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 not around in the city.
I had that feeling of self-pity
I experienced a sense of self-pity.
What to do, what to do, what to do
Uncertain about what to do in that situation.
The outlook was decidedly blue
The overall atmosphere or mood was pessimistic.
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
...it unexpectedly turned out to be the luckiest day.
A foggy day, in London town
The setting is a foggy day in London town.
Had me low, had me down
The foggy day made the singer feel low and down.
I viewed the morning, with much alarm
The morning was observed with great concern.
British Museum, had lost its charm
The British Museum had lost its appeal or allure.
How long I wondered,
Expressing uncertainty about the duration of the feeling.
Could this thing last
Questioning how long the negative emotions would persist.
But the age of miracles, hadn't past
Despite doubts, the era of miracles had not ended.
For suddenly, I saw you there
The singer suddenly saw someone special.
And through foggy London town,
Despite the fog in London town...
The sun was shining everywhere
...the presence of the special person made everything bright.
For suddenly, I saw you there
A repetition of the moment of seeing someone special.
And through foggy London town,
Reiterating the positive impact of the special person.
The sun was shining everywhere
Emphasizing the widespread positivity in London town.
Everywhere
Highlighting the pervasive brightness and positivity.
Everywhere
Reinforcing the idea of positivity being everywhere.
Everywhere
Continuing to emphasize the pervasive positivity.
