Your Chair Is Still Here (Piano Ballad)

[Intro] (soft piano, cello hum) [Verse 1] Morning light comes through the kitchen glass Two cups out before I remember I set one back and let the moment pass Some habits are just love in December Your coat still hangs where you left it last I haven't found the heart to move it [Pre-Chorus] And that's okay, I'm taking time There's no clock on missing you [Chorus] Your chair is still here by the window Holding the shape of the days we knew I sit beside it when the evening's slow And talk a little, just like we used to do The room feels wide, but I'm learning to grow Your chair is still here, and so is my love for you [Verse 2] Friends drop by with casseroles and care Some days I laugh, some days I can't stop crying I tell them stories of the way you'd stare At sunsets like the sky was never lying Grief comes in like weather through the air And then it settles, and I'm still trying [Pre-Chorus] And that's okay, I'm taking time There's no clock on missing you [Chorus] Your chair is still here by the window Holding the shape of the days we knew I sit beside it when the evening's slow And talk a little, just like we used to do The room feels wide, but I'm learning to grow Your chair is still here, and so is my love for you [Bridge] Maybe one day I'll sit in it myself And see the garden the way you saw it Not to replace you, nothing else Just to carry on the view you taught me [Final Chorus] Your chair is still here by the window The light still falls the way it used to fall I keep you close in the things I know In every small kindness, in the pictures on the wall The room feels wide, but I'm learning to grow Your chair is still here, and I am here, after all [Outro] (piano and cello fade) Your chair is still here
