7 Rooms Of Gloom Lyrics

7 Rooms Of Gloom

 Four Tops

 (Holland - Dozier - Holland)

 

 I see a house, a house of stone

 (Seven rooms)

 A lonely house 'cause now you've gone

 (Filled with gloom)

 Seven rooms, that's all it is, seven rooms of gloom

 (Just seven rooms of gloom)

 I live with emptiness

 (Filled with emptiness)

 Without your tenderness

 

 You took the dream I had for us

 Turned my dreams into dust

 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

 

 I need your touch to comfort me

 The tender, tender arms that once held me

 

 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

 

 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

 

 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

 

 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 [fade]
