lyrics

I came in at half past eight, the kettle still warm on the plate

One blue mug by the sink, then I saw the extra chair by the gate

It sat near the wall where the coat hooks hang in a row

No one said a single thing, but the room already knew the show

Your shoe by the mat, my keys on the tray

That second chair there, like it stayed

I looked at the legs, at the seat, at the chrome

No question in the air, just another home

Second chair, second chair, second chair, second chair

Right there, right there, right there, right there

Second chair, second chair, second chair, second chair

Nobody spoke, but it stayed there

At nine fifteen, the radio cut off in the hall

You passed the spoon to my side, then leaned on the wall

The spare one held your jacket, folded neat and low

Like it had always been waiting for the same slow flow

Second chair, second chair, second chair, second chair

Right there, right there, right there, right there

Second chair, second chair, second chair, second chair

Nobody spoke, but it stayed there

I moved my cup, you moved yours too

Two chairs in the room, and the silence grew

No drama, no scene, just a place made true

By the way you sat like you always do

Second chair, second chair, second chair, second chair

Right there, right there, right there, right there

Second chair, second chair, second chair, second chair

Nobody spoke, but it stayed there
