Empty Chairs, Empty Tables 

Marius 

There's a grief that can't be spoken 

There's a pain goes on and on 

Empty chairs at empty tables 

Now my friends are dead and gone 

 Here they talked of revolution 

Here it was they lit the flame 

Here they sang about tomorrow 

And tomorrow never came. 

From the table in the corner 

They could see a world reborn 

And they rose with voices ringing 

I can hear them now! 

The very words that they had sung 

Became their last communion 

On the lonely barricade.. At dawn. 

Oh my friends, my friends forgive me. 

That I live and you are gone 

There's a grief that can't be spoken 

There's a pain goes on and on 

Phantom faces at the window 

Phantom shadows on the floor 

Empty chairs at empty tables 

Where my friends will meet no more. 

Oh my friends, my friends, don't ask me 

What your sacrifice was for 

Empty chairs at empty tables 

Where my friends will sing no more...
