Lyrics

SEVEN John Nelson/Tones Thorburn

Don’t quite know what to say to you
Will you listen anyway?
All those years you were part of me
Happiest days of our lives
Laughter, sunshine and memories
Sweet-days-of-carefree endless love
Warm caresses and Summer skies
Now they’re lost in the Winter’s frost

When you said you were leaving me
I felt a sudden chilly blast
Days filled with joy ’n’ summer wine
I should have known they couldn’t last
Got the photographs of our lives
Still feel your breath upon my face
What changed, I don’t understand
Why you left me without a trace

Seven was my number
When I told you it made you smile
now, I’ve lost count of those endless nights
With my finger on the dial

Trying to call, I’ve been writing every day
My seventh song is just a boy
Asking you to stay

Friends say that you’re moving on
While I’m stuck here in my dreams
My feelings for you are still so real
It’s not as crazy as it seems

Seven was my number
When I told you it made you smile
now, I’ve lost count of those endless nights
With my finger on the dial

Trying to call,
I’ve been writing every day
My seventh song is just a boy
Asking you to stay

I’m trying to call,
and I’ve been writing every day
My seventh song is just a ploy
I’m trying to you to stay.
