Lyrics

Seven lonely days make one lonely week Seven lonely nights make one lonely me Ever since the time, you told me we were through Seven lonely days I cried & cried for you
Oh my darling you’re crying hoo hoo hoo hoo There’s no use in denying I cried for you It was your favorite pastime making me blue Last week was the last time I cried for you Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
Seven hankies blue I filled with my tears Seven letters too I filled with my tears Guess it never pay to make your lover blue Seven lonely days I cried & cried for you
Oh my darling yo’re crying hoo hoo hoo hoo Seven lonely days make one lonely week Seven lonely nights make one lonely me Ever since the time, you told me we were through It was your favorite pastime making me blue Seven lonely days I cried & cried for you Last week was the last time I cried for you cried & cried for you Oh my darling I… cried & cried for you Oh my darling I… cried & cried for you
孤單的七天造成孤單的一星期 孤單的七夜造成孤單的我 當你告訴我我們之間已結束的那一刻起 孤單的七天我為你哭的死去活來
噢!親愛的,你一直哭哭啼啼 我不需要否認我是為你哭的死去活來 是你最喜愛的消遣使我沮喪 上星期是我是為你哭泣的最後一次 Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
七條手絹的沮喪被我的的眼淚沾濕 七封信也同樣被我的眼淚沾濕 猜想這樣並不會使你的愛人感受沮喪 孤單的七天我為你哭的死去活來
噢!親愛的,你一直哭哭啼啼 七天造成孤單的一星期 孤單的七夜造成孤單的我 當你告訴我我們之間已結束的那一刻起 是你最喜愛的消遣使我沮喪 孤單的七天我為你哭的死去活來 上星期是我是為你哭泣的最後一次 為你哭的死去活來 噢!親愛的 為你哭的死去活來 噢!親愛的 為你哭的死去活來
