EMPTY CHAIR - Erik Kessels x Lensvelt

An empty chair is spoken for, but what does an empty chair say?
It says I am reserved for someone else who should be here today.

Or maybe it doesn’t say a word, and the napkin says it all.
That someone else is sitting here, they just had to make a call.

An empty chair is full of meaning that travels time and space.
It’s held the lives of many others, yet stayed in that one place.

A seat of comfort or sometimes pain, but a chair will have your back.
Making sure you sit up straight, for the confidence you lack.

An empty chair is always there, an invitation if you will.
But I’d prefer to stand a while, cause I’ve got some time to kill.

And if I sit, I’ll feel alone,
with no one else to stare.
So I’d rather stand my life away and see my empty chair.
