The Impressions — Seven Years

[Verse 1] Seven years remember when You became my loving friend Never forget that wonderful day Twas early spring, the first of May Everybody was so alarmed Though I never meant you no harm I was just so in love with you And I thought you loved me, too Seven years now I find It was just a waste of time [Verse 2] Oh, it's been so long And I'm yet to take you home You stand there, undecided While your friends keep us divided You're like a lost long freight And no longer shall I wait I find it isn't fair When there's only one who'll care Should have been gone away so long But I'm still here hangin' on [Break] [Verse 3] Seven years here an advice And there's nothing yet precise I got the girl I waited for She's just a wife and nothing more I hate the sound call of my name What a shame who can I blame I was just so in love with you And I thought you loved me too Seven years now I find It was just a waste of time [Outro] Woo ooh ooh ooh ooh Seven years, seven years I cried a lotta tears Having hard times, hard times Seven years
