Seven Rooms of Gloom (BBC Radio 1 - The Apollo Theatre, Glasgow)

Blondie

I see a house, a lonely house, a house of stone 'cause now you're gone
Just seven rooms, that's all it is, seven rooms of gloom

I live with emptiness, without your tenderness

You took the dream i had for us, turned my dreams into dust
I watch the phone that never rings
I watch the door that never rings
Bring you back into my life
Turn this darkness into light
I'm all alone, all alone in this house that's not a home

I miss your love i once had known
Your tender, tender arms to comfort me

Without your love, your love inside this house is just a place for me to run and hide
Seven rooms, that's all it is, 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 you darling, desperately
I'm all alone, all alone in this house that's not a home

I miss your kiss i once had known
Your tender, tender kiss that was my very, very own

Empty silence is surrounding me
Lonely walls they stare at me
Seven rooms, that's all it is, seven 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 till your face again i see
