| [00:08.63] |
There’s a grief that can’t be spoken. |
| [00:14.14] |
There’s a pain goes on and on. |
| [00:20.28] |
Empty chairs at empty tables |
| [00:24.79] |
Now my friends are dead and gone. |
| [00:32.02] |
Here they talked of revolution. |
| [00:37.68] |
Here it was they lit the flame. |
| [00:43.41] |
Here they sang about `tomorrow |
| [00:48.04] |
And tomorrow never came. |
| [00:56.04] |
From the table in the corner |
| [01:00.88] |
They could see a world reborn |
| [01:05.82] |
And they rose with voices ringing |
| [01:10.26] |
I can hear them now! |
| [01:14.33] |
The very words that they had sung |
| [01:20.63] |
Became their last communion |
| [01:28.34] |
On the lonely barricade at dawn. |
| [01:37.30] |
Oh my friends, my friends forgive me |
| [01:42.69] |
That I live and you are gone. |
| [01:48.35] |
There’s a grief that can’t be spoken. |
| [01:52.19] |
There’s a pain goes on and on. |
| [01:58.48] |
Phantom faces at the window. |
| [02:02.96] |
Phantom shadows on the floor. |
| [02:07.70] |
Empty chairs at empty tables |
| [02:11.23] |
Now my friends will meet no more. |
| [02:17.53] |
Oh my friends, my friends, don’t ask me |
| [02:26.20] |
What your sacrifice was for |
| [02:31.49] |
Empty chairs at empty tables |
| [02:36.54] |
Now my friends will sing no more. |
