[00:00.00]Empty Chairs (Live/1973) - Don McLean
[00:10.11]I feel the trembling tingle of a sleepless night
[00:13.05]
[00:15.31]Creep through my fingers and the moon is bright
[00:18.07]
[00:20.38]Beams of blue come flickering through my window pane
[00:23.79]
[00:25.82]Like gypsy moths that dance around a candle flame
[00:29.77]
[00:32.03]And I wonder if you know
[00:34.30]
[00:37.35]That I never understood
[00:38.96]
[00:42.64]That although you said you'd go
[00:44.82]
[00:46.13]Until you did I never thought you would
[00:50.92]
[01:04.60]Moonlight used to bathe the contours of your face
[01:07.94]
[01:09.62]While chestnut hair fell all around the pillow case
[01:13.15]
[01:15.09]And the fragrance of your flowers rest beneath my head
[01:19.03]
[01:20.95]A sympathy bouquet left with the love that's dead
[01:25.26]
[01:27.60]And I wonder if you know
[01:30.04]
[01:32.89]That I never understood
[01:34.69]
[01:38.01]That although you said you'd go
[01:40.11]
[01:41.61]Until you did I never thought you would
[01:46.15]
[01:48.64]Never thought the words you said were true
[01:50.78]
[01:53.72]Never thought you said just what you meant
[01:56.24]
[01:58.86]Never knew how much I needed you
[02:01.37]
[02:03.79]Never thought you'd leave until you went
[02:09.88]
[02:21.26]Morning comes and morning goes with no regret
[02:24.14]
[02:26.35]And evening brings the memories I can't forget
[02:29.91]
[02:31.82]Empty rooms that echo as I climb the stairs
[02:35.38]
[02:37.69]And empty clothes that drape and fall on empty chairs
[02:43.17]
[02:45.17]And I wonder if you know
[02:47.54]
[02:50.10]That I never understood
[02:52.16]
[02:55.57]That although you said you'd go
[02:57.84]
[02:59.23]Until you did I never thought you would
