Lyrics

Wait seven years
Wait seven years
Wait seven years before you fall in love
Fake us some tears
Fake us some tears
Shed us some tears before you fall in love
with someone else

And what was I supposed to do in your stead?
Found a love who knew me better
So I'll carve a Scarlet Letter in my chest

Wait seven years
Seven long years
Wait all those year for life to pass you by
Where are your tears
Shed us some tears
Bring us your tears for you to sacrifice
for no one else

And what was I supposed to do in your stead
Found a love who knew me better
So I'll carve a Scarlet Letter in my chest

But what was I supposed to do in your wake
Found a man who loved me better
But I'll carve a Scarlet Letter for your sake

But what was he supposed to do in your stead
Knowing he could give me better
So he gave me life the way he knew you can't
You can't
