WAITING FOR A GIRL LIKE YOU
(Jones /Gramm)
So long...
I've been looking too hard I've been waiting too long
Sometimes I don't know what I will find
I only know it's a matter of time

When you love someone
When you love someone
It feels so right so warm and true
I need to know if you feel it too
Maybe I'm wrong...
Won't you tell me if I'm coming on too strong
This heart of mine has been hurt before
This time I wanna be sure

I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for someone new
To make me feel alive
(Yeah) Waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life

You're so good...
When we make love it's understood
It's more than a touch or a word we say
Only in dreams could it be this way

When you love someone
Yeah really love someone
Now, I know it's right
From the moment I wake up till deep in the night
There's nowhere on earth that I'd rather be
Than holding you, tenderly

I've been waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life
I've been waiting for a girl like you
And a love that will survive

I've been waiting for someone new
Tao make me feel alive
Yeah waiting for a girl like you
To come into my life

    General Comment:Wasn't this the band's big hit? It never seemed to stop being played by DJ's. The dance floor would fill up quickly whenever it was played. Never a huge Foreigner fan, but the lyrics are decent. Very dated song...the 70's/80's era

    My Opinion:The opening motif one of the works of genius of the 20th century, a closer look ...
    the first two notes wide apart and dissonant, its a C then a B more than an octave apart, moving closer together, finally resolving on A. The whole meaning of the song captured in those descending converging tones.
