Seven Days |
| Seven days can be a long |
| Long time my friend |
| When you dream about the cold black chair |
| With straps for both your hands |
| If you wonder what it’s like |
| To know your life will soon be gone |
| Your thoughts are mostly 'bout the things |
| You wish you’d never done |
| (Spoken) |
| Your face is there in the darkest night |
| So clear upon my wall |
| Yet soon I know I’m to face |
| The darkest night of all |
| For on my head they’ll place |
| The thing that brings eternal peace |
| Then death will be the way |
| To make this ache inside me cease |
| A stolen kiss, a warm embrace |
| A secret rendezvous |
| They didn’t seem so wrong |
| That night when first I met you |
| Then there he was, insane with rage |
| To see you held so tight |
| I didn’t mean to kill him |
| When we had that awful fight |
| Seven days I’ve sat here |
| Thinking 'bout our sin |
| Seven days to realize |
| The trouble that I’m in |
| Seven days to weigh the price |
| The man will make me pay |
| Seven days to think 'bout |
| The night you ran away |
| Then you were gone and he lay dead |
| A smile upon his lips |
| He knew this was the last time |
| You’d give him the slip |
| Knew too, the price for stolen love |
| Was just too much to pay |
| Perhaps I too can smile like him |
| When my life ebbs away |
| He’s coming out to lead me on |
| To that little cell-like room |
| I fancy your face is smiling |
| As we walk through the gloom |
| Perhaps you’ve found another |
| Who wants a rendezvous |
| But I’ll, I’ll bet he can’t imagine |
| The price of loving you |
| Seven days I’ve sat here |
| Thinking 'bout our sin |
| Seven days to realize |
| The trouble I’m in |
| Seven days to weigh the price |
| The man will make me pay |
| Seven days to think about |
| The night you ran away… |
