Chelsea Bridge (1958) Lyrics


I was a stranger in the city
Out of town were the people I knew
I had that feeling of self-pity
What to do, what to do, what to do?
The outlook was decidedly blueBut as I walked through the foggy streets alone
It turned out to be the luckiest day I've knownA foggy day, in London town
Had me low, had me down
I viewed the morning with much alarm
British museum had lost it's charmHow long I wondered
Could this thing last
But the age of miracles hadn't past
For, suddenly, I saw you there
And through foggy London town
The sun was shining everywhereFor, suddenly, I saw you there
And through foggy London town
The sun was shining everywhereEverywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere

Benjamin Francis Webster (Kansas City, Missouri, USA, March 27, 1909 – Amsterdam, The Netherlands, September 20, 1973) was an influential American jazz tenor saxophonist. Ben Webster, a.k.a. "The Brute" or "Frog", was considered one of the three most important "swing tenors" along with Coleman Hawkins (his main influence) and Lester Young. Known affectionately as "The Brute", he had a tough, raspy, and brutal tone on stomps (with his own distinctive growls), yet on ballads he played with warmth and sentiment.
