[Verse 1]
Can't look at your side of the bed
Still smell your perfume on my shirt
Three weeks now since you walked away
Haven't moved your coffee cup
Your jacket hanging by the door
Keep expecting you to come back home
Check my phone but know it's dead
Same silence every day
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell myself I'm doing fine
But I'm lying every time
[Chorus]
Empty chair across from me
Where you used to sit and laugh
All your books still on the shelf
Half of me is somewhere else
Empty chair, empty chair
Wish that you were sitting there
[Verse 2]
Friends keep saying let it go
Time will heal and all that stuff
But your toothbrush by the sink
Says you're never coming back
Made your favorite meal tonight
Ate alone like every night
TV's on but can't hear sound
Just this ringing in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell myself I'm doing fine
But I'm lying every time
[Chorus]
Empty chair across from me
Where you used to sit and laugh
All your books still on the shelf
Half of me is somewhere else
Empty chair, empty chair
Wish that you were sitting there
[Bridge - Orchestral swell]
Keep your picture in my wallet
Can't bring myself to put it away
Every room feels like a graveyard
Of the things we used to say
[Final Chorus]
Empty chair across from me
Where you used to sit and laugh
All your books still on the shelf
Half of me is somewhere else
Empty chair, empty chair
Know you're never sitting there
