Seven Tears Songtext
von Bruce Springsteen

I had a wife, I had a child
I had a home upon a hill
Had a good life for seven years
Now all I′ve got is seven tears

Went down to see my gypsy man
He said, "Now son, I understand"
When I said, "I want one for every year"
He tattooed on my face, these seven tears


Oh, seven tears, oh, seven tears
I want one for every happy year
My baby's gone, she′s gone, gone, gone
And I'll cry forever ever on (woo, woo)

When I walk out into the lights of town
People see me comin' and they gather ′round
They wanna know how I ended up here
With this tattoo on my face of seven tears

Oh seven tears, oh seven tears
I want one for every happy year
My baby′s gone, she's gone gone gone
And I′ll cry forever ever on

Mm, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
