[Verse 1]
Open up your window
Open up your door
I need a taste of your sweet, sweet love
That's all I'm living for
I've been down on my luck
Down on my knees
Just waiting for a chance to show you baby
I only aim to please

[Chorus]
Hey-hey-honey
I'm out on the edge I'm on the borderline
Hey little honey
You won't believe what's going through my mind

[Verse 2]
I'll build a mountain of love
Every time I think of you
A mountain of love
See it rising up, and all you've got to do
Is get high on my mountain of love

There is no use in pretending
Because I've got my eyes on you
The first time that I saw you girl, I knew
Nobody else would do

[Chorus]
Hey-hey-honey
Take a little trip, take a ride with me
Hey little honey
Because I've got something you've just got to see

[Verse 3]
It's a mountain of love
High enough to touch the sky
A mountain of love
Can't you feel it burning up inside
I'm going to build a big mountain of love
Every time I think of you
You'll feel a mountain of love
See it rising up, and all you've got to do
Is get high on my mountain of love

[Chorus]
Hey-hey-honey
I'm out on the edge, I'm on the borderline
Say little honey
Come with me and we'll climb, climb, climb

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.
