lyrics

In the city where the rain never falls
A cold air breeze drifted from the mountains
The blue skies melded into gray
As the fog descended unto this city

Every street and every light faded into the haze
Creating a beautiful mixture of blues, whites, and oranges
And as I stepped out onto the streets
I saw the most magnificent visage surround me

Oh, how I love the fog
Oh, how I love the fog

The sunset faded into the night
As the fog's grays replaced the stars
Spreading its beautiful majesty
All over the world for you to see

And as for me, well, I
Walked around and I breathed deep
I took in a rare cold air
And wished I had my camera with me

Oh, how I love the fog
Oh, how I love the fog...
