Won't nessesarily go away. Could get worse. If you have a hair dryer, apply heat at the area of moisture to dry it out.

Did you recently pressure wash the area around the headlight?

Some folks have drilled small holes in the lower corners of the headlight to help in "equallizing" the inner and outside temps. I have not seen great success in this. I would do the headlight lense removal procedure (placing in oven; use the search), and then resealing the lens. A pain in the butt to get all the old sealer out of the groove, but it's the only real way to get that headlight assembly to not fog again.
