An Empty Chair
de Carrie Newcomer
I don't like the people staring at me like I'm a roadside wreck
I don't wanna have to explain to the ones who? Neck
I don't like that the mail with his name, is still delivered here
I don't like that where he used to be is now an empty chair
My boy said, 'I don't want to sit down to dinner
It just makes my stomach ache, I don't like he don't tuck me in
I don't want a birthday cake!'
And when we both sit down to dinner, the ache is everywhere
I don't like that where he used to be is now an empty chair
And I close my eyes
It still hurts the same
When you least expect
Everything can change
Everything can change
I don't want to keep my chin up and keep wondering what if
There are things you cannot get over you just learn to carry it
I don't wanna have to pack up all his things that still are here
I just want where he used to be to not be an empty chair
Oh, and I close my eyes
It still hurts the same
When you least expect
Everything can change
Everything can change
There's an empty chair in the kitchen, tere's a quiet in the house.
People say that time will heal, but I have my
Doubts...
There's cold side to the bed, and so I sleep downstairs
I don't want this empty chair. I don't wanna see the t.v.
Cover one more tragedy, this is not another hard luck story
It happened to me!
People sit around lie to themselves
Until the tale becomes threadbare
The truth sounds like a gunshot and it looks like an empty chair
Oh, and I close my eyes
It still hurts the same
In a flash of light everything can change
Everything can change.
Everything can change
