Description
A song about loss of a loved one after a long lifetime together, and the inability to accept the fact that they are gone - either in a physical sense or a mental one (dementia).

Chorus

For there's no such thing as an empty chair,
When it carries the impression of she, who sat there.
For all those years, all those times,
The memories that made them laugh,
And the heartbreak that made them cry,
To him, she did not die.
