Seven Days Lyrics

Seven Days lyrics

she was so young and so afraid 
of a world she could not understand 
for seven days I held her close 
like a child in the palm of my hand 
there were 

seven tears 
to wipe away 
seven fears 
to keep at bay 
seven words 
for me to say 
in seven days 

the strands of wisdom twist and curl 
soft flame in the warmth of my heart 
oh essential words that lightly fall 
like snow thru the mist of her thought 
the gentle rain of innocence 
that flows from her ebony eyes 
another secret moment shared 
to be part of the rest of our lives 
there were 

seven dreams 
to live for real 
seven streams 
of hope revealed 
seven ways 
of love to feel 
in seven days 

we are the only ones who know 
her smile was poetry 
her soul she showed it to me 

the dawning of the seventh day 
saw her shine like the radiant skies 
I knew that she would leave me then 
bright hope in her ebony eyes 
(and now) I watch her dance before the world 
soft flame in the movements she makes 
and all those secret moments shared 
stay warm in my thoughts everyday 

remembering 

seven tears 
wiped away 
seven fears 
kept at bay 
seven words 
you heard me say 
seven dreams 
to live and play 
seven streams 
of hope revealed 
seven waves 
of love we feel 
seven days 
memory of seven days
