Table for one

by Passenger

lyricscopy.com
So I sit on this table for one
And pour me a drink that´ll last
I´m not drunk I just miss being young
And I grew old too fast

My wife she breaks and she bends
My children they don´t understand
I came here tonight in search of a friend
But I´m the invisible man

‘Cause I´ve swallowed my tongue
And I´ve polished my gun
And I´ve sat on my secrets for years
With my stiff upper lip
My composure won´t slip
And I´ve hidden each silent salty tear

I sit on this table for one
And I have been here before
It´s a little less than I´d had in mind
But I wouldn´t ask for more

And my mother she taught me to write
And my father he taught me his trade
And I wish that they could both be here tonight
To see what a mess I´ve made

‘Cause I´ve swallowed my tongue
And I´ve polished my gun
And I´ve sat on my secrets for years
With my stiff upper lip
My composure won´t slip
And I´ve hidden each silent salty tear

My sons and my daughters don´t know me at all
I´ve dug in trenches and put up walls
I whisper I love you each night as they sleep
But no one hears me when I speak
On this table for one

So I sit on this table for one
I won´t go till they tell me to leave
Why´d they teach me to follow my dreams
When dreams are all they can be?
