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
but as I walked through the foggy streets alone
it turned out to be the luckiest day I've known
a foggy day in london town
it 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
{ From: http://www.elyrics.net }
for, suddenly, I saw you there
and through foggy london town
the sun was shining everywhere
a foggy day in london town
it 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 there
and through foggy london town
the sun was shining upside-down!
