Music: Tony Max
They never moved it
Still leans to the side
Same little scratch
From your keys that night
I sit down slow
Order the same old brew
Table for one
But it still holds two
The waitress don't ask
She just knows
Cream on the side
Sugar in tow
You carved your name
Where the paint wore thin
I trace it like a prayer
I say within
That old café chair
Still knows your weight
Still holds my heart
Like it's yesterday
They changed the menu
Repainted the wall
But you're in the corner
Still sayin' it all
Yeah, the coffee gets cold
But I stay right there
Talkin' to ghosts
In that old café chair
The rain hits soft
On the outside glass
Like your fingers drummin'
When we used to laugh
I leave a tip for two
Fold the bill just right
Slide it under the cup
Like you did that night
A stranger walks in
Smiles like you
But he ain't got
That same quiet truth
I sip real slow
Pretend you're late
But this time
I don't wait
That old café chair
Still knows your weight
Still holds my heart
Like it's yesterday
They changed the menu
Repainted the wall
But you're in the corner
Still sayin' it all
Yeah, the coffee gets cold
But I stay right there
Talkin' to ghosts
In that old café chair
