Phillips Anthony - Seven Long Years (1979) lyrics

Seven long years have gone by, Scattered on the wind, Fortunes made and squandered, Ardour's beacon growing dim. Seven long years have now past Neither glimpse nor word Of the j**el that vanished Though the case lay undisturbed. Seven long years have I spent Trying to forget, But no man can banish Heaven he has sought and met. Through the trials and the tears Still I cannot learn, Ever hopeless dreaming Perhaps some day you will return.
