7 Rooms of Gloom Lyrics


I see a house, a house of stone
A lonely house, 'cause now you're gone
7 rooms, that's all it is, 7 rooms of gloom
I live with emptiness, without your tendernessYou can take the dream I had for us
And turn that dream into dust
I watch a phone that never rings
I watch your door that never bringsBrings you back into my life
And turn this darkness into light
I'm all alone in this house
Turn this house into a homeI need your touch to comfort me
Your tender, tender arms that once held meWithout your love, your love inside
This house is just a place to run and hide
7 rooms, that's all it is, 7 rooms of gloom
I live with emptiness, without your tendernessDon't make me live from day to day
Watching a clock that ticks away
Another day, another way
Another reason for me to sayI need you here, here with me
I need you darling, desperately

I'm all alone, all alone
In this house that's not a homeI miss your love, if I once had known
I miss your kiss that was my very, very ownIn the silence that surrounds me
Lonely walls, they stand
7 rooms, that's all it is, 7 rooms of gloom
I live with emptiness, without your tendernessAnd all the windows are painted black
I'll wait right here until you get back
I'll keep waiting, and waiting
Until your face again I seeDarling, yeah yeah, huhI want you back now
I keep waiting, and waiting
I want you back now
I keep waiting, and waitingCome on back now
I keep waiting, and waiting, and waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting
I want you back now, oh now
Come on back now

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Pat Benatar is a four-time Grammy winner with six platinum and four gold albums to her credit as well as such hit singles as "I Need A Lover", "Heartbreaker", "Fire and Ice", "Treat Me Right", "Hit Me With Your Best Shot", "Hell Is For Children", "Shadows Of The Night", and "Love Is A Battlefield". Benatar is acknowledged as one of the leading female rock vocalists in the industry.

She was born in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, New York City, USA, on January 10th 1953, as Patricia Andrzejewski and graduated Lindenhurst High on Long Island in 1971. She married her lead guitarist, Neil "Spider" Geraldo, in 1982, and has two children, Haley and Hana.

In 1973, Benatar quit her job as a bank teller to pursue a singing career after being inspired by a Liza Minnelli concert she saw in Richmond. She got a job as a singing waitress at a flapper-esque nightclub named "The Roaring Twenties", and got a gig singing in lounge band Coxon's Army. They garnered enough attention to be the subject of a never-aired PBS special, and the band's bassist, Roger Capps, would go on to be the original bass player for the Pat Benatar band.

This period also yielded Benatar's first solo single – 1974's "Day Gig" – until her eventual major label debut on Chrysalis Records in 1979. The song was released via Trace Records, and was both written and produced by Coxon's Army band leader Phil Coxon.

Benatar's big break came in 1975 at an amateur night at the comedy club "Catch a Rising Star" in New York City. Her rousing rendition of Judy Garland's "Rock-a-Bye Your Baby with a Dixie Melody" earned her a call back by club owner Rick Newman, who would later become her manager.

After many years of producing big budget albums, Neil and Pat have continued to produce albums together, even though they have decided to end their association with major labels. They have chosen instead to place the care of their children above industry demands, and make records at home in their own professional quality studio. Each summer when their girls get out of school for vacation, they all pack up, board a tour bus, and set out to play as many shows as they can fit into the summer months. Pat and Neil maintain a close, and much more personal, relationship with their fans, than they were able to do in 80's during the heights of their commercial success.
