Seven Days
Vs: 1 Sixteen ain’t no age, you know
To spread your wings and fly
There’s a lot of living to do
Before you say goodbye
I told her when she left that day
The door will always swing both ways
She looked back
And then – she ran away
Vs: 2 Looks like she’s out of control
Trying hard to find her soul
I don’t think she hears a word I say
There’s a road for her I know
Don’t know where its gonna go
Guess it could lead her back here someday
Chorus:
She might just want to be left alone
Maybe she wants to come home
She belongs here
Been gone too long
Come back home
Instrumental: Over Chorus
Bridge: Just one week seems like years
Too much heartache, too many tears
Did I think that I could give her
Everything she needs
Did I think I held that power in my hands
Vs: 3 Seven Days, seven nights
Out beneath the highway lights
She must be feeling so alone
Folks had better treat her right
Little kid in a long long fight
Running anyplace
She don’t call home
Chorus: You know she might just want to be left alone
Maybe she wants to come home
She belongs here
Been gone too long
Come on home
Maybe for a short time
Maybe for a life time
Come on home
Its been Seven Days and Seven Nights
It’s time for you to come back home
