I see a house, a house of stone A lonely house, 'cause now you're gone Just seven rooms, that's all it is, seven rooms of gloom I live with emptiness, 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 house into a home
I need your touch to comfort me Your tender, tender arms that once held me
Without your love, your love inside This house is just a place to hide Just seven rooms, that's all it is, seven rooms of gloom Rooms of emptiness, 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 darlin', desperately I'm all alone, all alone in this house that's not a home
I miss your love I once have known I miss your kiss that was my very, very own
Empty silence surrounds me These lonely walls, they stare at me Just seven rooms, that's all it is, seven rooms of gloom I live with emptiness, without your tenderness
All the windows are painted black I'll wait right here 'til you get back I keep waitin' and waitin', 'til your face again, I see
When are you coming back? When are you coming back? Oh, when are you coming back?
