A Foggy Day 1937 'A Damsel In Distress'

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 12 Feb 2005

I was a stranger in the city.
Out of town were the people I knew.
I had that feeling of selfpity,
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'd known.

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 ev'rywhere.

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 ev'rywhere.
