Empty Tables Lyrics by Ray Charles

0

[Verse]
It's like singing to empty tables
Or a gallery full of ghosts
Or like giving a great big party
Where nobody shows but the host
That's what it's been like, baby
That's what it's been like all night
Without you around to applaud me
Every night's just like closing night
And I'm singing, singing the same old numbers
And I'm telling the same sad jokes
And there's nothing out front but memories
And lot of transparent folks
So, please call, call and make a reservation
In our favorite spot for two
Because I'm singing to empty tables without you
Without you [x2]
