7-Rooms of Gloom (Single Version / Mono)

I see a house, a house of stone
A lonely house, 'cause now you're gone
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 and 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 run and hide

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, lonely walls, they stare at me
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 call back
I keep waitin' and waitin', 'til your face again I see
