Lyrics
(Seven rooms) I see a house
A house of stone
(Filled with gloom) a lonely house
'Cause now you're gone
(Just seven rooms of gloom) seven rooms, that's all it is
Seven rooms of gloom
(Filled with emptiness) I live with emptiness
(Without your tenderness) without your tenderness
You took the dream I had for us
And turned that dream into dust
I watch a phone that never rings
I watch a door that never rings
I need you back into my life
To turn this darkness into light
I'm all alone in this house
Turn this housе into a home
I need your touch to comfort me
Your tendеr, tender arms that once held me
(Seven rooms) without your love
Your love inside
(Filled with gloom) this house is just a place
To hide
(Just seven rooms of gloom) seven rooms, that's all it is
Seven rooms of gloom
(Filled with emptiness) rooms of emptiness
(Without your tenderness) without your tenderness
Don't make me live from day to day
Watching a clock that ticks away
Another day, another way
Another reason for me to say
I need you here, here with me
I need you, darling, desperately
I'm all alone, all alone
In this house that's not a home
I miss your love I once had known
I miss your kiss that was my very, very own
(Seven rooms) empty silence
Surrounds me
(Filled with gloom) these lonely walls
They stare at me
(Just seven rooms of gloom) seven rooms, that's all it is
Seven rooms of gloom
(Filled with emptiness) I live with emptiness
(Without your tenderness) without your tenderness
All the windows are painted black
I'll wait right here 'til you get back
I'll keep waiting and waiting
'Til your face again I see
When are you coming back? (When are you coming back?)
When are you coming back? (When are you coming back?)
Oh, when are you coming back?
