Seven Years Songtext

von Celtic Legend

Seven years have passed since I spoke your name
Still the wind has brought you here again
Though the door's ajar, my heart's cold and numb
For my land is dead, and the war not won

O my love, you come so late for me!
All my dreams are lost amongst the sea

Will you leave me now that my fortune's gone?
Though my horse is dead, and my body wronged?
Will keep your promise made to me?
And take what was not claimed by the sea?

My heart cries for your love to be strong
But the years have seemed so cruel and long

Will my arms embrace you?
Will my lips still taste you?
Is your grief still with thee?
Will thy years forget me?

Seven years
Seven years

O my love, you come so late for me!
All my dreams are lost amongst the sea
Will you stand by all you've said and done?
Will you tell me I'm the only one?

Seven years (Seven years)
Seven years
Seven years (Seven years)
Seven years

Seven years (Seven years)
Seven years
