Grey Foggy Day

Click Here for guitar tabs.

Been some years ago,
Since I left my island
To go to the mainland,
Like the old folks would say
As I walked up the gangway
And I stood on the starboard
And I gazed on the harbour
On a Grey Foggy day

(Chorus)
Summer days they were warmer then
When we laugh with the old fishermen
And they curse when the fog rolled in
Then they made up the hay
It's been more than a long long time
Since I held you and called you mine
And we waited for the sun to shine
On a Grey foggy day.

To wake in the early morn
To the sound of the old fog horn
And wait for the men to return
With their boats in the bay
All these things I don't see no more
When I lived on the old cape shore
And I gazed on the boats on their moor
On a Grey foggy day

Chorus

And as long as my heart
Doesn't break from those old memories
Old lover and old use to be
I'll come home to stay
I can still hear the ocean roar
Through the hills on the old cape shore
There are no fishing boats anymore
But it's a Grey foggy foggy day

Chorus

And I pray at the sun will shine ....

On this great foggy day
