This is an old song that I was never quite happy with, so I went back and worked on it again, changing the chords in the chorus. I also added a spoken verse and would appreciate some feedback on that. Is it just too schmaltzy, obnoxiously sentimental? Should I just leave it out and go straight to the third verse at the end of the fiddle solo? LISTEN AT SOUNDCLOUDOVERFLOWING (Words & Music by Gavin Sinclair) Many the night that we have sat around this table The tales we’d tell and the jokes that we would crack. I’d put my arm around you now if only I were able If only I could have you back. We’ll save a place for you, my friend Whom we’re so proud of knowing And though the chair be empty now Our hearts are overflowing. Many the glass that we have raised to one another Laughing eyes across the foam This was a party that we thought would last forever I cried when you went home We’ll raise a glass to you, my friend It is our way of showing That though the glass be empty now Our hearts are overflowing. So here we are, full glasses and hearts overflowing with memories. And we sing of good times that won't come again. Sometimes, when someone makes a joke, I forget and look around, try to catch your eye and I feel a tear in my own. So what can we do, but raise our glasses to an empty chair and say we still love you and miss you?This old room still may ring with our laughter At the memories that you left behind But in our hearts there’s a before and there’s an after A clock we can’t rewind We’ll tell our tales of you, my friend Until it’s time for going For laughter’s never empty when Hearts are overflowing
