Foreigner

Songwriter: Al Greenwood Mick Jones (Foreigner)

Producer: Bernhard Baran

I stole a ride on a passing star
Not knowing where I was going, how near or how far

Through years of light lands of future and past
'Til the Heavenly gates were sighted at last

Starrider (rider-rider)
Take me to the stars

Starrider (rider-rider)
Show me where you are!

Northern Lights flash by and then they were gone
And the old stars were dying so the new ones were born

Ever on our own celestial ways
And in the light of my years shown the rest of my days

Speed increasing, all control is in the hands of those who know!
Will they help us grow?
To one day peace - starrider

Starrider (rider-rider)
Show me where you are

Star-rider (rider-rider)
Take me to the stars!

Speed increasing, all control is in the hands of those who know!
Will they help us grow?
To one day peace - starrider

The name of the band Foreigner was chosen because half of the original members were from England, and the other half from the U.S. The group had quite a few people join and leave, but one of the originals, Mick Jones, (not Mick Jagger) stayed the whole time. Foreigner celebrated their 40th anniversary in 2017, with Mick still there.
