Verse 1:
Gm Gm/A#
You took the dream I had for us

I watch the phone never rings

I watch the door that never rings

Bring you back into my life

Turn this darkness into light

I'm all alone in this house

Turn this house into a home
Eb6 Eb A# D7/F#
I need your touch to comfort me
Eb6 Eb A# D7/F#
The tender, tender arms that once held me
Chorus 2:
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
Verse 2:
Don't make me live from day to day
Watching the clock that ticks away
Another day, another way
Another reason for me to stay
I need you here, here with me
I need your loving desperately
I'm all alone, all alone
In this house that's not a home
I miss your love I once had known
I miss your kiss that was my very, very own
Chorus 3:
Empty silence surrounding me
Lonely walls they stare at me
Seven rooms, that's all it is - rooms of gloom
I live with emptiness
Without your tenderness
Verse 3:
All the windows are painted black
And wait right here until you come back
I'll keep waiting, waiting
Until your face again I see
