Lyrics
[Verse]
He stood so tall in his boots and coat
A hero wrapped in olive and hope
I watched him smile
I watched him leave
With a wave so strong
It shook the trees
[Prechorus]
Mama said he'll be back soon
Like the sun chases the moon
[Chorus]
But now there's an empty chair at the table
No stories
No laughter
No fables
The hero who carried the weight of the world
Left his boy with a flag tightly curled
[Verse 2]
I played with his helmet
Big for my head
Imagined the battles
The things he said
He wrote from the front
His words were light
They burned like a candle deep in the night
[Prechorus]
Mama held the letters close
Prayed to a God she barely knows
[Chorus]
But now there's an empty chair at the table
No stories
No laughter
No fables
The hero who carried the weight of the world
Left his boy with a flag tightly curled
