7 years without you, 7 years crying.
I've tried to move on, 7 years trying.
7 years of regret, full of self blame.
7 years of loneliness and all its pain.

7 years of pretence, of self doubt.
Into hiding I've been if love was about.
7 years on, where do I go from here?
7 more years of the same is my fear.

7 years of dreams of how things were.
Why didn't I show you love and care?
7 years on, hill after hill I still climb.
7 meaningless years, was all that time.

7 years no sunshine, only rain and gale.
Ships only to flounder, never to sail.
7 years to reflect, to ponder and dwell.
7 years of my life, that's my story to tell.
