Terence Trent D'arby Seven More Days lyrics

Teardrops rusting on a steel bar
Harmonica blues
Heart blood, thick enough for pine tar
I've got a hole in my delta shoes

Grown men wither and they dry away
Their lives compromised
I've gotta hold on, struggle through another day
To see the fire in my baby's eyes


Society's debt's have been more than paid

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
The Jericho mile and a river so wide
In seven more days, there'll be no more divide

Bad dreams, cornerstone realities
Bears witness to shame
Hell's gate, a landscaped brutality
All for material gain

She's home, praying on her hands and knees
That's safe, shall I part
But I am guilty of her memory
There's no crime in my heart


Society's debt's have been more than paid

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
The Jericho mile and a river so wide

In seven more days there'll be no more divide
No more, no more, yeah

Lawful society says this is what you get
Tearful sobriety of matters that you soon regret
It all adds up to time
Debts have been more than paid
[Incomprehensible]

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
The Jericho mile and a river so wide
In seven more days, there'll be no more divide

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
The Jericho mile and a river so wide
In seven more days

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
The Jericho mile and a river so wide
In seven more days

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
The Jericho mile and a river so wide
In seven more days

In seven more days, I'll be home to you
And the walls will tumble down that's separating us two
