Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
I'm just about through
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
Yes, on my own
[Verse 2]
Darling, darling
You know if you cared anything about love
You would've been front and center
Ooh, lovin' me and touchin' me
Honey, honey
You know if you knew anything about me
You would've been much more tender
Ooh, squeezin' me, caressin' me
[Verse 3]
You could've had about anything you wanted
But you messed it up, ooh, you had to be tough
You told your friends you had me wrapped around your finger
You were talking kind of cocky like you had it goin' on
All the while you knew that things were kinda shaky
You knew that you were wrong
Dead wrong to be, mistreating me
How can we go on?
[Verse 4]
Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
I'm just about through
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
Yes, on my own
[Verse 5]
Sugar, sugar
You know if you knew anything about sweet
You would've kept talkin' to me
Oh, every day, seven days a week
Baby, baby
You should've been givin' me a little more time
But you were just much too busy
Oh, abusin' me and usin' me
[Verse 6]
I would've done about anything you wanted
I was there for you, I was crazy about you
When I was sittin', thinkin' I was kind of special
You were runnin' round, hittin' every other girl in town
How could you love me when you knew you played me?
Funny, you knew that you were wrong
Dead wrong to be, mistreating me
How can we go on?
[Verse 7]
Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
I'm just about through
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
Yes, on my own
[Verse 8]
Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
I'm just about through
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
Yes, on my own
[Verse 9]
Deep in my heart, you were number one to start
But then you changed, you threw my heart away
Told your friends that you were runnin' things
Why'd it have to be that way?
You're wrong, dead wrong
Tell me how, how can we go on?
[Verse 10]
Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
I'm just about through
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
Yes, on my own
[Verse 11]
Seven whole days
And not a word from you
Seven whole nights
I'm just about through
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
Yes, on my own
[Verse 12]
Seven whole days
Seven whole nights
What am I to do?
[Verse 13]
Seven whole days
Seven whole nights
I can't take it, won't take it
Can't take it no more
I had about enough of you
I'd rather be on my own
