[Verse 1]
"David," I said as I lay on my bed
"Another year's gone by
You're startin' your parole
In the mornin', they said
Please tell her I'm alright"
[Chorus]
Seven more years if only she can hold on
Seven more years and I'll be home again, oh
David, you got to tell her that I miss her
Tell her I'll miss every day 'til then
But tell her it ain't so bad
And say you're my friend
Say that I'm okay
And tell her to wait for me (Wait for me)
And I'll be home again
Gettin' home again
Gettin' home again
[Verse 2]
"David," I said as he started to go
"Another year's gone by
Won't you write me sometime?
I'll miss you, you know
But I'll make out alright"
[Chorus]
Seven more years if only I can hold on
Seven more years and I'll be home again, huh
David, you got to tell her that I miss her
Tell her I'll miss her every day 'til then
But tell her it ain't so bad
Please tell her, my friend
Say that I'm okay
And tell her to wait for me (Wait for me)
And I'll be home again
Gettin' home again
Gettin' home again
Gettin' home, gettin' home again, ah
[Chorus]
Seven more years if only I can hold on
Seven more years and I'll be home again, oh
David, you got to tell her that I miss her
Tell her I'll miss her every day 'til then, ah
[Outro]
I've only got seven more years
I've only got seven more years
I know I've got only got seven more lousy years
Only got seven more years, oh
Only got seven more lousy years
Only got seven more years
You know I've only got seven more years
