Seven days can be a long

long time my friend

When you dream about

the cold black chair with

straps for both your hands

If you wonder what

it's like to know your life

will soon be gone

Your thoughts are mostly

bout the things you wish

you'd never done

Your face is in there

the darkest night

so clear upon my wall

Yet soon I know

I'm to face the darkest

night of all

For on my head

they'll place the thing

that brings eternal peace

Then death will be

the way to make this

ache inside me cease

A stolen kiss a warm

embrace a secret

rendezvous

They didn't seem

so wrong that night

when first I met you

Then there he was insane

with rage to see

you held so tight

I didn't mean to

kill him when we

had that awful fight

Seven days I've sat

here thinking bout our sin

Seven days to realize

the trouble that I'm in

Seven days to weigh

the price the man will

make me pay

Seven days to think

bout the night

you ran away

Then you were gone

and he lay dead a smile

upon his lips

He knew this was

the last time you'd

give him the slip

Knew too the price

for stolen love was

just too much to pay

Perhaps I too can smile

like him when my life

ebbs away

He's coming out to lead me

on to that little cell like room

I fancy your face is smiling

as we walk through

the gloom

Perhaps you've found

another who wants

a rendezvous

But I'll I'll bet he can't

imagine the price

of loving you

Seven days I've sat here

thinking bout our sin

seven days to realize

the trouble I'm in

Seven days to weigh

the price the man will

make me pay

Seven days to think

about the night

you ran away
