Seven Years Lyrics - Pale Sun, Crescent Moon - Cowboy Junkies

Haven't seen the sun for seven days 

November's got her nails dug in deep 

Haven't seen my son for seven years 

and the chances are we'll never again meet 

If truth be told I don't even know his name 

If truth be told he doesn't even know my name 

I spend my spare time with my rosary beads 

although I never learnt to pray 

but you don't need the light 

and it's best to pretend 

that you've seen the errors of your ways

The darkness in here 

is as heavy as a judgement 

This darkness, heavy as a judgement 

My dreams are now filled with Gilead trees 

and other sights that I've never seen 

They used to be filled 

with the fears of tomorrow 

and the horror that it might bring 

His eyes felt to me 

as cold as a stone mason's chisel 

His eyes fell on me, cold 

like a stone mason's chisel 

Photos 

Strange how a mind can always recall 

what the senses eagerly leave behind 

I can remember his face, rage, 

disgust and distaste 

but to my fear I have grown blind 

Memories are just dead men making trouble 

this memory is just a dead man making trouble
