Title: "Empty Chair at the Table"
(Verse 1)
I wake up every mornin', to the sound of your name,
But the silence in this house, it just feels like a game.
Your laughter used to fill these walls, now echoes of the past,
Every room reminds me, how good love can’t last.
(Chorus)
There's an empty chair at the table,
Where you used to sit by my side.
Now it feels like a fable,
A love that I can’t abide.
I’m searchin’ for the memories,
But they slip through my hands like sand,
Oh, losing you was the hardest,
A heartache I can’t withstand.
(Verse 2)
The sun sets in the window, just like it did before,
But it don’t shine as bright without you walkin' through that door.
I’ve got your favorite whiskey, but it don’t taste the same,
Every sip reminds me, I’m the one to blame.
(Chorus)
There's an empty chair at the table,
Where you used to sit by my side.
Now it feels like a fable,
A love that I can’t abide.
I’m searchin’ for the memories,
But they slip through my hands like sand,
Oh, losing you was the hardest,
A heartache I can’t withstand.
(Bridge)
I see your smile in the moonlight,
I hear your voice in the breeze,
But every time I reach for you,
It’s just a whisper through the trees.
(Verse 3)
So I’ll keep on a-movin’, with this weight on my soul,
Tryin' to find a way to fill this gaping hole.
But the truth is like a shadow, it follows me around,
In every lonely corner, your love is what I’ve found.
(Chorus)
There's an empty chair at the table,
Where you used to sit by my side.
Now it feels like a fable,
A love that I can’t abide.
I’m searchin’ for the memories,
But they slip through my hands like sand,
Oh, losing you was the hardest,
A heartache I can’t withstand.
(Outro)
So here’s to all the lovers, who’ve lost their way back home,
May you find a light to guide you, in the darkness you roam.
But for me, I’ll keep on searchin', for a love that slipped away,
With an empty chair at the table, I’ll face another day.
