Seven Years From Yesterday - Jackie DeShannon

If we look to the sun

We’re gonna burn our eyes

If we walk to another shore

We’ll ask for more

'Cause the world is round and

We’re up and down now

I can’t get off on you no more

But don’t worry 'bout

Havin' bad times

'Cause all the good times make you more

And it’s a long way from Heaven

And we’re seven years from yesterday

It’s a long way to nowhere

But we’ll get there if you stay

If you stay, if you stay

Every night from time to time

You turn away

You whisper soft

I hear you askin' for yesterday

Every night you pray

Every night I say

«Prayers won’t help when we come down»

It’s a long way from Heaven

And we’re seven years from yesterday

It’s a long way to nowhere

But we’ll get there, Lord, if you stay

If you stay, if you stay

If you stay
