Empty Chair Lyrics

He came to our house on Friday nights, A day I looked forward to
To share some bread and tell us stories, Of the things he used to do.
When he left us on that warm spring day, To go to the man upstairs
Friday nights never were the same, And there sits an empty chair.
She wasn't much for books and school, But sure 'nough had her dreams
As the years went by, the kids came along
She was the best mom she could be
When she left us on that summer day In disbelief we stared
Silence fills a big, old house
And there sits an empty chair.
There's a table up in heaven And all our friends are there
the day will come when we'll all sit down and There'll be so much to share
Even though I miss them here on earth I know I'm going there
There's a place for me at the table And there sits an empty chair
High up in heaven There's a place we all will fly

And be together forevermore And never say goodbye
We all have people in our lives we love, who love us to Don't wait to tell them how you feel
Don't waste an "I Love You" Cause its too late that fateful day
To tell them we really care When there gone and you can't bring them back
And there sits an empty chair
There's a table up in heaven And all our friends are there
the day will come when we'll all sit down there'll be so much to share
Even though I miss them here on earth I know I'm going there
There's a place for me at the table And there sits an empty chair
There's a place for me at the table
And there sits an empty chair
