7 rooms of gloom lyrics

Artist  : Pat benatar 
Song : 7 rooms of gloom
 
 (Eddie Holland, Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland)
 (Originally performed by the Four Tops)

I see a house, a house of stone
A lonely house, 'cos 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
I live with 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
Seven rooms, that's all it is, seven rooms of
gloom
I live with emptiness, without your tenderness

And 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

(I want you back now) I keep waitin' and waitin',
I want you back now
(I want you back now) I keep waitin' and waitin',
c'mon back now
I keep waitin' and waitin' and waitin', waitin',
waitin', waitin'
(I want you back now) C'mon back now
