The band is led by British journeyman rocker Mick Jones (former member of Nero and the Gladiators, Spooky Tooth, and The Leslie West Band) who in early 1976 met with ex-King Crimson member Ian McDonald and formed Foreigner with Lou Gramm of Rochester, NY - As three other musicians who were all unknown at the time to form a sextet. The band's debut album Foreigner sold more than four million copies in the United States and stayed in the Top Twenty for a year with such hits as "Feels Like the First Time", "Cold as Ice", and "Long Long Way From Home". Their sophomore effort, Double Vision, topped their previous selling five million records and spawned "Hot Blooded" and title track "Double Vision". The third album Head Games was also successful due to the thunderous "Dirty White Boy" and another title track hit "Head Games". 1980 brought personnel changes so that now the band was a quartet and Rick Wills played bass.

I Have Waited So Long Lyrics

Foreigner

I have waited oh, so long
Please dont tell me baby I was wrong
Dreaming of you every night
Holding back until the time was right
Ive counted the days, day after day
Since weve been apart
Now Ive found my way, Ive found my way
Right back to your heart
Ive been searching for you every where
Calling you, but you were never there
Seeking in the dark of night
Hoping one day you would shine a light
Ive counted each day, day after day
Since weve been apart
Now Ive found my way, Ive found my way
Right back to your heart
I have waited oh, so long
Please dont tell me baby I was wrong
Dreaming of you every night, every night, every night
Holding back until the time was right
Ooh, I have waited so long
Aah, dont tell me I was wrong
I dream of you, Im dreaming of you baby
Dont go away
