[Verse 1]
Out in the street, it's 6 am
Another sleepless night
Three cups of coffee, but I can't clear my head
From what went down last night

I know we both have our own little ways
But somehow we keep it together
You hear me talk, but you don't hear what I say
I guess it don't even matter

[Chorus]
Blue morning, blue day, won't you see things my way?
Blue morning, can't you see what your love has done to me?

[Verse 2]
I've always listened to your point of view, my ways I tried to mend
And I've always been a patient man, but my patience has reached its end
You tell me you're leaving, you tell me goodbye
You say you might send a letter
Well honey don't telephone, cause I won't be alone
I need someone to make me feel better

[Chorus] [x2]

[Outro]
Blue morning, blue morning [x3]
Blue, blue, blue day

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.
