A Foggy Day In London Town

(George Gershwin)



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

CHORUS
  A foggy day in London Town
  Had me low and had me down
  I viewed the morning with 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 everywhere
