Table For One

[Intro] [Verse] It was a rough, stormy night Deep inside my heart When that lone cold touch Met my hand there in the dark I just froze for a moment Scared of what to do next No thought process could prepare me For what was coming next I found you a pretty dress Put on your favorite rings I had to make the calls And tell them all you were no longer suffering The dogs just can't believe it Nobody wants it true We'd all give whatever we could Just to get one more minute with you [Pre-Chorus] And the days, they come and go But nothing feels the same I'm just trying to find a way To live with what remains [Chorus] I never thought I would be here Never saw this far ahead Every night I lay there, dreaming About the life we led I never saw our story end Never thought I'd see it done Just sitting here in silence... At a table for one At a table for one... [Verse] Time just creeps by slower now With your voice not around I spend my days lost wandering With my head up in the clouds I go to the places we loved Things we'd seen a thousand times The diner, the lake, those old back roads Where you were always by my side I look at it all one final time And just hang my head and cry Then I open up my hands And let a little piece of you fly A little by the water A little beneath the trees A little where we watched the sunset A little carried on the breeze And when I see you wafting in the air I swear I feel you next to me Somewhere, somehow, I know you're here Just like you promised that you'd be [Pre-Chorus] I know you're waiting Somewhere beyond the sun And when my road finally reaches you I'll know my waiting's done Nothing can stop this unstoppable love [Chorus] I never thought I would be here Never saw this far ahead Every night I lay there, dreaming About the life we led I never saw our story end Never thought I'd see it done Just sitting here in silence... At a table for one At a table for one... [Verse] Now the weeks have turned to months And the months just keep moving on I get up and make the coffee Even though I know you're gone There's work to do and bills to pay There's groceries on the shelf Funny how the world keeps turning When half of yours has left Sometimes I still talk to you When I'm sitting in this chair Then I feel the empty room And remember you're not there But I don't fear the waiting Not like I did that night Because somewhere down the road ahead I know I'll see your light So I'll keep living every morning I'll keep walking every mile I'll keep your memory with me And carry it with a smile Until the day I take my place Somewhere beyond the miles [Bridge] Maybe love don't disappear Maybe it just changes shape Maybe every empty chair Is proof of the love we once made And if heaven has a table Save a place beside your own I'll spend every day that's left to me Knowing I am not alone Final Chorus] I never thought I would be here Never saw this far ahead Every night I lay there, dreaming About the life we led I never saw our story end Never thought I'd see it done But I'll keep sitting here in silence... At a table for one At a table for one... And I'll keep your chair beside me Till my waiting's finally done At a table for one... [Outro-End]
