Van Der Lucky - 7 AM

7 AM *[Intro]* Three a.m… Four a.m… Still wide awake… Waiting for your call, Waiting for your voice, Waiting for you to wake up. Oooo… Uuuu… --- *[Verse 1]* The night is fading slowly, But I still can't close my eyes. Watching every minute pass, Just hoping you'd come alive. You said, “Stay up till the morning,” So I stayed awake for you. Fighting sleep, fighting silence, Like that's what lovers do. --- *[Pre-Chorus ]* Five a.m… Still calling out your name. Six a.m… Nothing feels the same. I kept giving what you wanted, While my own heart waited too. Maybe that's what love became— Losing pieces of myself for you. --- *[Chorus ]* **Seven in the morning, And I'm still waiting on you.** Eyes wide open, heart wide broken, Still trying to make it through. **Seven in the morning, I gave you all I had.** Tell me, why does loving you Make me feel this alone? (Soft female overtone) **So alone… So alone…** Oooo… *Still waiting on you…* --- *[Verse 2 ]* I never needed perfect, I just needed something real. I kept bending for your wishes, While forgetting how I feel. I tried to be your safe place, The one who'd always stay. But somewhere in the middle, My own heart slipped away. --- *[Pre-Chorus 2]* Six a.m… The darkness starts to fade. And one thought keeps returning That I can't push away… **If loving you means losing me, How much more can I give?** --- *[Chorus]* **Seven in the morning, And I'm still waiting on you.** Eyes wide open, heart wide broken, Still hoping you'd come through. **Seven in the morning, I gave you all I could.** But if I'm the only one still fighting, *How long can this love hold?* **How long… How long…** --- *[Bridge]* I don't regret loving you. I don't regret staying up. Every moment that I gave you Came from a heart that loved too much. But love shouldn't feel like this… One heart giving, one heart taking. It should never feel like I'm the only one Trying to keep us alive. --- *[Final Chorus]* **Seven in the morning… And finally, you wake.** But something inside me Has already changed. **Seven in the morning… And the sky is turning blue.** Now I finally understand… **I wasn't just waiting for you. I was waiting for you to choose me too.** **Choose me too… Choose me too…** Oooo… Uuuuuu… **Seven in the morning… I stayed because I loved you.** Not because I couldn't walk away… **But because I kept hoping You'd love me the way I loved you.**
