[Verse 1]
I've been on this road a long time
I've been travellin' for days
But it seems I'm getting nowhere
I just can't find my way
I've been following directions
But they must be out of date
And I can't, and I can't, and I can't, no I can't
Decide which road to take

[Bridge]
See I've got to find my baby
Because we need to work things out
I've got to see that woman
I cannot do without her!

[Chorus]
You know I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I can't wait, I can't wait another heartbeat
No I can't wait, can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until midnight

[Verse 2]
And the nights go on forever
These days I get no sleep
And I miss her more than ever
Inside where love runs deep
Oh I know I'm going to find her
Cause I'm following this star
And I can't, and I can't, no I can't turn back
Oh lord, I've come so far
And I'll know she'll whisper in my ear
About all the things I've missed
She's got that way about her now
I never could resist

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
No I can't wait
I can't wait another moment
I couldn't wait another heartbeat
I can't wait until the midnight

[Outro]
Now I can't wait
No no no can't wait
No no no
Can't wait
No no no
Can't wait

Foreigner

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.
