Fog Lifts at Seven

by Zuri Bell

“Fog so thick you cannot see the corner, and somehow that is calming. The dance-pop beat arrives like sunrise.”

Lyrics

Fog on the window, soft as a sheet
Cannot see the corner, cannot see the street
Kettle's on the hum, I'm in my socks
Whole world's whispering, hush, hush, hush

Wait for it, wait for it
Something's glowing through the grey

Fog lifts at seven, here comes the gold
Rooftops are shining, stories unfold
Oh-oh, let it lift, let it lift
Every little cloud is a gift
Fog lifts at seven, I'm dancing slow
Sunshine is coming, and I know
Oh-oh, let it lift, let it lift
Morning is a gift

Bicycle bells ring from out of nowhere
Bakery smell floating on the air
Neighbours are ghosts in their coats and their scarves
Waving at shadows, laughing out loud

Wait for it, wait for it
Something's glowing through the grey

Fog lifts at seven, here comes the gold
Rooftops are shining, stories unfold
Oh-oh, let it lift, let it lift
Every little cloud is a gift
Fog lifts at seven, I'm dancing slow
Sunshine is coming, and I know
Oh-oh, let it lift, let it lift
Morning is a gift

Not every day starts clear
Some days start soft and slow
But look how the light comes near
Warming up the road below
Call it out, I'm here, I'm here
Call it back, hello, hello

Fog lifts at seven, here comes the gold
Rooftops are shining, stories unfold
Oh-oh, let it lift, let it lift
Every little cloud is a gift
Fog lifts at seven, I'm dancing slow
Sunshine is coming, and I know
Oh-oh, let it lift, let it lift
Morning is a gift

Fog lifts at seven
Hello, hello, gold
