17 Days by Prince and the Revolution Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Called you yesterday
You didn't answer your phone
The main drag is knowing that
You probably weren't alone

[Verse 2]
So here I sit in my lonely room
Lookin' for my sunshine
But all I've got is two cigarettes
And this broken heart of mine

[Chorus]
So let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down

[Verse 3]
You've been gone seventeen days
Seventeen long nights
The main drag is knowing that
You're holding someone else tight
[Verse 4]
I wanna to call you everyday
And beg you to be near me
But I know your head is underwater
I doubt that you could hear me

[Chorus]
So let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down

[Post-Chorus]
Ha, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Seventeen days
Ha, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Seventeen days

[Verse 5]
Called you yesterday
You didn't answer your phone
If you're the one who's always lonely
Then I'm the one who's always alone
[Verse 6]
So here I sit in my lonely room
Lookin' for my sunshine
All I've got is two cigarettes
And this broken heart of mine

[Chorus]
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down

Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down

Why don't you answer your phone?

Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Seventeen days

Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down, down
Seventeen days
