[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. |
[00:08.63] | There' s a grief that can' t be spoken. |
[00:14.14] | There' s a pain goes on and on. |
