Seven Days
Craig Hill Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who lived a couple blocks away from me (owh)
As I walked through the subway
It must have been about quarter past three
In front of me
Stood a beautiful honey with a beautiful body
She asked me for the time
I said it'd cost her name
Did she decline? No
Didn't she mind? I don't think so
Was it for real? Damn sure
What was the deal? A pretty girl aged 24
So was she keen? She couldn't wait
Cinnamon queen? let me update
What did she say? She said she'd love to
Rendezvous
She asked me what we were gonna do
Said we'd start with a bottle of moet for two
(Chorus)
Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
(Verse 2)
Nine was the time
'cause I'll be getting mine
And she was looking fine
Smooth talker
She told me
She'd love to unfold me all night long
Ooh I loved the way she kicked it
From the front to back she flipped it (back she flipped it, ooh the
Way she
Kicked)
And I oh oh I yeah
Hope that she'd care
'cause I'm a man who'll always be there
Ooh yeah
I'm not a man to play around baby
Ooh yeah
'cause a one night stand isn't really fair
From the first impression girl hmm you don't seem to be like that
'cause there's no need to chat for there'll be plenty time for that
From the subway to my home
Endless ringing of my phone
When your feeling all alone
All you gotta do
Is just call me call me
(Chorus)
Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
(Break it down, break it down)
Since I met this special lady
Ooh yeah
I can't get her off my mind
She's one of a kind
And I ain't about to deny it
It's a special kind of thing
With you-oh.......
[Chorus]
Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday, Sunday Sunday Sunday....
The song "Seven Days" by Craig David tells the story of how he met a woman on the subway who asked him for the time, and how he made a deal with her: he would give her the time if she gave him her phone number and agreed to go on a date with him the next day. She agreed, and they started seeing each other regularly, culminating in a weekend of chilling together. This song is Craig David's breakthrough hit, and is known for its catchy melody, smooth R&B sound, and relatable lyrics.
The lyrics of "Seven Days" tell a story that is familiar to many people: the experience of meeting someone new and being swept off your feet. The song's catchy chorus, which repeats the days of the week, emphasizes the routine and regularity of their encounters, lending a sense of groundedness to the otherwise heady romance. The themes of the lyrics are universal: falling in love, the thrill of seduction, and the excitement of discovering a new person. The song's upbeat rhythm and funky instrumentation amplify the joyful feeling of the lyrics, making it a classic feel-good track.

Right before my eyes
Stood a beautiful honey with a beautiful body
There was this gorgeous lady with an attractive physique
She asked me for the time

I asked for her name in return
A six digit number & a date with me tomorrow at nine
I asked for her contact number and if she's willing to go out with me tomorrow evening

Kicked)
She danced amazingly, doing various movements from the front to the back
And I oh oh I yeah
And I, Oh! Oh! Yes!
Hope that she'd care
I hoped that she would reciprocate her feelings for me
'cause I'm a man who'll always be there
I'm a loyal man who will always be there for the one I love
I'm not a man to play around baby
I'm not someone who plays around with feelings
'cause a one night stand isn't really fair
I believe a one night stand isn't morally right
From the first impression girl hmm you don't seem to be like that
From what I sensed in your personality, you don't seem like someone who wants a one night stand

We don't need to chat much now as there will be plenty of time later
From the subway to my home

My phone kept ringing constantly
When your feeling all alone
When you feel lonely
All you gotta do
All you have to do

Ever since I met this special lady
I can't get her off my mind
I can't stop thinking about her

She's unique
And I ain't about to deny it
And I'm not going to deny it
It's a special kind of thing
It's a unique kind of affair
With you-oh.......
With you, oh my love!
Sunday Sunday Sunday....
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday - the day we relaxed together
