Lyrics

Fog on the road and the windows white
Coffee is poured in a soft yellow light
I can't see the corner, I can't see the hill
The whole world is hushed and the whole world is still

Foggy morning, take it slow
Nowhere much to go
Let the grey wrap round the town
Let the hours wind down
Foggy morning, take it slow
I'll walk where the lamps still glow
Every step a little song
You can't go wrong

A baker's door lets out some bread
A bike goes by, a bell is said
Faces float up out of the mist
Tipped hats, a nod, a wave, a wish

Foggy morning, take it slow
Nowhere much to go
Let the grey wrap round the town
Let the hours wind down
Foggy morning, take it slow
I'll walk where the lamps still glow
Every step a little song
You can't go wrong

The sun is somewhere up above
Warming the cloud like a hand in a glove
It will come when it is ready, it will come
Till then I hum, till then I hum

Foggy morning, take it slow
Nowhere much to go
Let the grey wrap round the town
Let the hours wind down
Foggy morning, take it slow
I'll walk where the lamps still glow
Every step a little song
You can't go wrong

You can't go wrong
