[Intro]
The space at the table is waiting here for you
I pray, hope and listen
I'm always here for you
Although I will try not to weep, not to cry
You will always be the apple of my eye
[Verse]
Surrounded by love, surrounded by pain
Keep looking at your picture again and again
The nights are so dark
I have you in my heart
Where the warmth of my love shines through
[Verse]
I held you in my arms
You've fallen for my charms
Your sweet smile, your eyes made me cry
Once again, you're not here
Amongst the festive cheer
Since you've gone, I keep asking why
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyone can see the pain in my eyes
You're the only one
I hope you realise
[Chorus]
The space at the table is waiting here for you
I pray, hope and listen
I'm always here for you
Although I will try not to weep, not to cry
You will always be the apple of my eye
[Verse]
For me, this is the third
Without a spoken word
Though we talk everyday in my mind
For my love is so strong
It carries me along
You're my hope, you're always on my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Everyday I hide the pain in my heart
You're the only one
I wish we could restart
[Chorus]
The space at the table is waiting here for you
I pray, hope and listen
I'm always here for you
Although I will try not to weep, not to cry
You will always be the apple of my eye
[Verse]
Maybe next year
The mist will disappear
The road ahead will brighten and be clear
We'll be a family again, fix the broken chain
The world will turn again
(Again, again, again)
[Chorus]
The space at the table is waiting here for you
I pray, hope and listen
I'm always here for you
Although I will try not to weep, not to cry
You will always be the apple of my eye
