Cherry Neneh - 7 Seconds lyrics

rate me

Don't see me from a distance<br />

Don't look at my smile<br />

And think that I don't know<br />

What's under and behind me<br />

I don't want you to look at me<br />

And think<br />

What's in you is in me<br />

What's in me is to help them<br />

I assume the reasons that push us to<br />

Change everything<br />

I would like us to forget about<br />

Their color<br />

So they can be optimistic<br />

Too many views on rave that make them<br />

Desperate<br />

Let's leave the doors wide open<br />

So they can talk about their pain<br />

Then we can give them information<br />

That will bring us all together<br />

Chorus:<br />

It's not a second<br />

7 seconds away<br />

Just as long as I stay<br />

I'll be waiting<br />

Nothing can move us, we should<br />

Be moving<br />

From the ones who practice wicked<br />

Charms<br />

For the son and the stone<br />

Bad to the bone<br />

Man is not evil, even when it's born<br />

And when a child is born into this world<br />

It has no concept<br />

The tone the skin is living in<br />

Chorus<br />

There's a million voices<br />

There's a million voices<br />

To tell you what she should be thinking<br />

So you better sober up for just a second
