Lyrics

SEVEN THIS YEAR

Katie was eight, Timmy was four
That summer the wolves howled at the door
Bill lost his job, they were down on their luck
Four mouths to feed on a hard-earned buck
All their plans had gone astray
And another was on the way...but now

Katie is a freshman
Timmy is big as his dad
Bill's a clerk at the courthouse
Things ain't bad
But sometime's she'll get hazy
And it's painfully clear
There's a hole in her heart
From the one who'll be Seven This Year

House on the hill, white pickett fence
Backyard that's filled with family and friends
Bill loves her so, and she's thankful for him
And she tells herself they did the right thing
'Till a moment of doubt slips through
And she wonders if it haunts him too...that

(CHORUS)
There's a hole in her heart
From the one who'd be Seven This Year
