The good thing about "Streets of London" is that it does not require a huge vocal range, and that means more people can have a good chance of singing it. But singing takes practice, and the more you work at it, the better you get.

Give yourself 2-3 weeks of practicing and recording yourself on this song, and I think you will be surprised at how much you will improve. Note the places you are not really on the note and work on those places. Work on tone and expression. Since we are all pretty much our own worst critics, you can also be your own best coach.

It's certainly a worthy goal, because as you have noted, this is a wonderful song! Again, best of luck!
