Terence Trent D'arby - Seven More Days lyrics

rate me

Teardrops rusting on a steel bar

Harmonica blues

Heartblood thick enough for pine tar

I've got a hole in my delta shoes

Grown men wither and they dry away

Their lives compromised

I've gotta hold on

Struggle through another day

To see the fire in my baby's eyes

Society's debt have been more than paid

In seven more days

I'll be home to you

And the walls will tumble down

That's separating us two

The Jericho mile and a river so wide

In seven more days

There will be no more divide

Bad dreams, cornerstone realities

Bears witness to shame

Hell's gate - a landscaped brutality

All material gain

But she's home praying on her hands & knees

That safe shall I part

But I am guilty of her memory

But there's no crime in my heart

Society's debts have been more than paid

In seven more days

I'll be home to you

And the walls will tumble down

That's separating us two

The Jericho mile and a river so wide

In seven more days

There will be no more divide

Lawful society

Says this is what you get

Tearful sobriety of

Matters that you soon regret

It all adds up to time

Debts have been more than paid

In seven more days

I'll be home to you

And the walls will tumble down

That's separating us two

The Jericho mile and a river so wide

In seven more days

There will be no more divide
