Story behind the song
The internet has made the world a small place and music has shown us just how much the ordinary peoples of the world have in common.
Lyrics
Foreign Land cc1.ccI hear your song, from far away in a foreign land 
ccThe wind carries it clear over the sea 
ccAnd as you sing, from far away in your foreign land 
ccYour words fall from the breeze, like leaves from a tree cccc2.ccHolding on to my hat, gathering words from a foreign land 
ccNot knowing for sure what your words say 
ccBut I pick them up, I’m storing words from a foreign land 
ccFood for my thoughts on a Winters day ccccChorus:ccSo hey, what do you say 
ccDo you say what you mean, do you mean what you say 
ccMy friend for a day, sing me your song ccFrom your foreign land, from your foreign landcccc3.ccIs the sun on your back, far away in your foreign land 
ccDo you sit on a warm beach singing to me 
ccOr does it snow, do cold winds blow in your foreign land 
ccOr do you just sing to set yourself free cccc4.ccSend me your joy, from far away in your foreign land 
ccLet all of your sorrows drift high above 
ccSend me your tears, like drops of rain from a foreign land 
ccAnd I will gather them all and wrap them in love ccccChorus: x2ccSo hey, what do you say 
ccDo you say what you mean, do you mean what you say 
ccMy friend for a day, sing me your song ccFrom your foreign land, from your foreign landcccc
