The sky is cloudy gray
Rain drops fell upon his face
Seven years he threw away
When he broke his dear love's heart

And it shouldn't end this way:
His foolish heart it went astray
Was it something he could say?
"You'll never take away her pain."

The city lights and traffic sounds
People scurry across the ground
He caught her eye at the next light
Tears were far too strong to fight

She said, "What are you doing here?
The moment I have long since feared
Oh, I'm not the girl you left behind
She's been gone for quite for some time."

You could see it in her eyes
She had run out of tears to cry
Now she turned and walked away
Seven years gone to waste
