Seven Days Too Long
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The first time I called you, Girl, they said you wasn't home,
And the second time I telephoned, ah, they all told me to leave you alone,
We had a lovers' quarrel, yes we did, like all lovers do,
I wanted to make-up, it's only left to you now,
Cos seven days is too long without you, Baby,
Come on back to me,
Seven days is too long without you, Baby,
Come on back to me.
I refuse to break-up, ah, but I'm too weak to fight,
And our love is too strong, yes it is, to go on and let it die,
Let's sort out these problems, cos, ah, I can see the danger signs,
And it's written on your face, just as it worries my face.
Cos seven days is too long without you, Baby,
Come on back to me,
Seven days is too long without you, Baby,
Come on back to me.
You've got me so wired up, ah, I can't even concentrate,
I say good things will come, I say good things will come to those who wait (wait),
I'm not gonna wait around forever, listen to me, listen:
Seven days is too long without you, Baby,
Come on back to me,
Seven days is too long without you, Baby,
Come on back to me.
Seven days is far too long,
It's much too, much too, much too long,
Seven days without you.
