Lyrics

[00:02.50] "Table For One Radio Edit"
[00:05.19] Passenger
[00:05.82]
[00:26.41] So I sit on this table for one
[00:30.78] And pour me a drink that’ll last
[00:34.39]
[00:35.27] I’m not drunk I just miss being young
[00:38.58] And I grew old too fast
[00:42.26] My wife she breaks and she bends
[00:45.93] My children they don’t understand
[00:50.36] I came here tonight in search of a friend
[00:54.43] But I’m the invisible man
[00:57.79] ‘cause I’ve swallowed my tongue
[01:00.03] and I’ve polished my gun
[01:01.97] and I’ve sat on my secrets for years
[01:05.47] with my stiff upper lip
[01:07.84] my composure won’t slip
[01:09.52] and I’ve hidden each silent salty tear
[01:15.44]
[01:31.02] I sit on this table for one
[01:35.25] And I have been here before
[01:38.32]
[01:39.76] It’s a little less than I’d had in mind
[01:42.94] But I wouldn’t ask for more
[01:46.68] And my mother she taught me to write
[01:50.62] And my father he taught me his trade
[01:54.48] And I wish that they could both be here tonight
[01:58.67] To see what a mess I’ve made
[02:02.27] ‘cause I’ve swallowed my tongue
[02:04.59] and I’ve polished my gun
[02:06.21] and I’ve sat on my secrets for years
[02:10.14] with my stiff upper lip
[02:12.13] my composure won’t slip
[02:14.32] and I’ve hidden each silent salty tear
[02:17.61]
[02:18.25] my sons and my daughters don’t know me at all
[02:22.17] I’ve dug in trenches and put up walls
[02:25.99] I whisper I love you each night as they sleep
[02:29.91] But no one hears me when I speak
[02:33.68] On this table for one
[02:37.26]
[02:55.37] So I sit on this table for one
[02:59.17] I won’t go till they tell me to leave
[03:04.16] Why’d they teach me to follow my dreams
[03:07.60] When dreams are all they can be
[03:11.02]
[03:11.70]
