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 [continue w/unintelligible backing vocals to fade] -- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
