From the recording Seven Days Ago
Lyrics
SEVEN DAYS AGO
Seven days ago you crossed my mind
As I passed over the Tennessee state line
On my way back east to play a county fair
You’re still living there
I spent some time with thoughts of you
As I drove across the mountains made of blue
And I remembered your letters, how you wrote in shades of gray
Words like “some day”
I hoped that I would see you in the faces
And we would talk about how beautiful this place is
Then I wondered if this would be our time to get it right
And I would go home with you that night
CHORUS:
But you let me down seven days ago
How could I be so wrong?
You never even took the time to come and hear me play my song
Seven days ago
This is what fate had in store
So what am I waiting for?
I’m leaving this place and your mountains made of blue
Because it’s all about you
You let me down seven days ago
How could I be so wrong?
You never even took the time to come and hear me play my song
Seven days ago
Seven days ago
Seven days ago
