James - Seven Lyrics






Blow me away
Was that love you declared
Only a word
Love can mean anything

I understand the world, we're living in

Oceans apart
What's that view from your wave
Beautiful craft
Weather and change

I understand the world, we're living in
Love can mean anything

God made love to me
Soothed away my gravity
Made me a pair of angel's wings
Clear vision and some magic things

God is love to me
Thank you for those things

I understand the world, we're living in
Love can mean anything

Darling, I'm open
Unguarded, unbroken

Now we've done our time
We can drift away
Like the heavy cloud
With the weight of rain

I understand the world, we're living in
Love can mean anything

I understand the world, we're living in
Love can change anything

I understand the world, we're living in
Love can mean anything

I understand the world, we're living in
Love can change anything

    Correct lyrics:

    Blow me away
    Was that love you declared
    Only a word
    Love can mean anything
    Understand the world we're living in

    Oceans apart
    What's that view from your wave
    Beautiful craft
    Weather and change
    Understand the world we're living in
    Love can mean anything

    God made love to me
    Soothed away my gravity
    Made me a pair of angel's wings
    Clear vision and some magic things

    God is love to me
    Thank you for those things
    Understand the world we're living in
    Love can mean anything

    Darling
    I'm open
    Unguarded
    Unbroken

    Now we've done our time
    We can drift away
    Like the heavy cloud
    With the weight of rain

    Understand the world we're living in
    Love can mean anything

    Understand the world we're living in
    Love can change anything

  35. a.... g....

    Amo James e 80"

  36. M.... J....

    Beautiful...

  37. S.... E....

    Cant believe this has few views...

  38. f.... ....

    My favourite band of the nineties I was 22 when this came out and this my fav song off the album Seven, still baffles me why the album Seven isn't in the all time top hundred ever albums cause every song is amazing, I still listen to the same cassette now that I bought back then lol.

    f.... ....

    floydonian makes me remember my first love who destroyed my heart. I shared my love of this album with her to show her my love but, in time it was betrayed. That's why it's a great album but would never vote for it in any poll.

    f.... ....

    Agree seven is one of the albums of all time. Most underated band ever

    f.... ....

    So agree with these true comments. To me, a very underated band that has made several great listening albums and stunning singles that seem to be forgotten.

    f.... ....

    totally agree. whole album is soooo good. So under rated most people have never even heard of James

  39. K.... E....

    understand the world we're living in.......

    K.... E....

    still busy with it...

  40. K.... E....

    made me a pair of angels wings,
    clear vision & some magic things.....

  41. K.... E....

    Love can change anything.

    K.... E....

    +Kathy Eaton So well said. It's why the lack of love is also so despairing.

    K.... E....

    +The God Effect quoting from some inspirational words :)

  42. J.... H....

    Apparently the deluge of water at 2.10 was unintended. It was supposed to be a shower to soak the band but not the deluge which sent all the kit flying. They did improvise well however.

  43. F.... O....

    In my humble opinion God besides love is the seventh sense of all beings (human and non-human also). Love James, Love God.

    F.... O....

    www.equip.org

    F.... O....

    lol its a song about gay love,...and how god hates it,...its antitheist in essence lol,..seven sins!!,..nothing to do with loving god,..sorry

  44. F.... O....

    In my humble opinion God besides love is the seventh sense of all beings (human and non-human also). Love James, Love God.

  45. K.... P....

    7 is Heaven.

    K.... P....

    +Kathy Potgeter Seven is god I believe.

    K.... P....

    Yes that is why the reference. :)

  46. T.... V....

    Beautiful 😙

  47. M.... V....

    Why the title 7?

    M.... V....

    7 members of band?

  48. T.... C....

    erm brilliant much?

  49. P.... M....

    This is the first version of Seven on an exclusive produced video the way that Tim sings is very different that the Seven sang on the album and live !

  50. c.... d....

    who were the 6 thumbs down ???? brilliant band

    c.... d....

    They were s club 7 fans on acid

  51. A.... M....

    James were never underestimated they were massive 20 years ago huge we wee all on it.Best years for music was the 90's the rave scene and indy music wicked wicked times who was ever lucky enough to see and get involved in it.

    A.... M....

    +Adam Mills James was my favourite band back then when I was in my twenties most of my friends were into INXS or KLf and the rave scene and never understood what I saw in James they only ever liked one song (Sit down) but could never appreciate a talented group of musicians, need to admit the best album (cassette) I ever bought was Seven.

    A.... M....

    Agreed!!!!😊

    A.... M....

    However, the Joshua Tree album was quality.

    A.... M....

    +Adam Mills yep must admit I still have that on cassette too just one of a few cassettes I've managed to save over the years, think I've got about 4 U2 cassettes.

    A.... M....

    They went relatively unnoticed here in the States.
    I saw them in Cleveland.. rappers Black Sheep opened for them.
    This is one of the greatest songs ever written

  52. F.... D....

    por su energia poetica el mejor grupo de musica 

  53. L.... J....

    Me encanta!!!! muy buena!!

  54. J.... C....

    MUY BUENA,RECUERDO DE LA OROYA

  55. L.... Q....

    LINDA!!!

  56. S.... A....

  58. a.... ....

  59. L.... S....

    Yes, I think so, too. Beautiful intelligent gentleman and great lyricist. LOVE Tim, LOVE James.

  60. S.... W....

  62. B.... C....

    Great song and sound

  63. C.... ....

    Couldnt have put if better maself :D

  64. C.... ....

    I think Tim Booth is one of the best lyricists ever, if not THE best.

  65. L.... ....

    James regularly meshes smart, deep, uplifting lyrics with beautiful, catchy music better than most bands could ever dream of on their best day. This song is just another example.

  66. A.... A....

    Música maldita lo máximo James, pero me preocupa que a 2 watichurros no les guste jajaja.

  67. y.... ....

    'God Botherers'?! Are you taking the piss?!

  68. J.... N....

    mother nature will always win against silly humans who are trying to play with her
