Natalie Merchant - Seven Years lyrics

How did I love you?
There was no measuring
Far above this dirty world
Far above everything
In your tower over it
You were clean

So warm & insightful
Were you in my life
I was sure the rightful
Guardian of my life
Damn you betrayer
How you lied

But for seven yeahrs
You were loved
I laid golden orchid crowns
Around your feet
For seven yeahrs
I bowed down
To touch the ground
So wholly your devotee
You were all I could see

I have got my sight now
I see everything you hid
So don´t you try to right now
All the wrong you did
I might forget you
But not forgive

But for seven yeahrs
You were loved
I laid golden orchid crowns
Around your feet
For seven yeahrs
I bowed down
To touch the ground
So wholly your devotee

For seven yeahrs
You were so revered
I made offerings
Of anything & everything I had
You were
All I could see
