Seven More Days Lyrics - Introducing The Hardline According To Terence Trent D'arby - Terence Trent Darby

Teardrops rusting on a steel bar 

Harmonica blues 

Heartblood thick enough for pine tar 

I've got a hole in my delta shoes 

Grown men wither and they dry away 

Their lives compromised 

I've gotta hold on 

Struggle through another day 

To see the fire in my baby's eyes 

Society's debt have been more than paid 

In seven more days 

I'll be home to you 

And the walls will tumble down 

That's separating us two 

The Jericho mile and a river so wide 

In seven more days 

There will be no more divide 

Bad dreams, cornerstone realities 

Bears witness to shame 

Hell's gate - a landscaped brutality 

All material gain 

But she's home praying on her hands & knees 

That safe shall I part 

But I am guilty of her memory 

But there's no crime in my heart 

Society's debts have been more than paid 

In seven more days 

I'll be home to you 

And the walls will tumble down 

That's separating us two 

The Jericho mile and a river so wide 

In seven more days 

There will be no more divide 

Lawful society 

Says this is what you get 

Tearful sobriety of 

Matters that you soon regret 

It all adds up to time 

Debts have been more than paid 

In seven more days 

I'll be home to you 

And the walls will tumble down 

That's separating us two 

The Jericho mile and a river so wide 

In seven more days 

There will be no more divide
