About

Yellow Chair is about missing and longing. Cherishing a warm memory. The loss of a specific person. The longing for a part of yourself that you lost somewhere along your life’s journey. The longing for a relationship or friendship that you never had but would like to have.

Lyrics

I still remember,
when nights were warm and evenings long.
You were the music to my song.

And every day was
like a postcard picture framed.
I still hear you say my name.

Now you’re gone,
I see you in my mind.
I’m not ready to move on.

I still see the yellow chair
where the sunlight kissed your hair
and you lit up the room with just a smile.
I looked into your eyes so blue,
I remember asking you:
“Why won’t you just stay here for a while?
Stay here for a while.”

One day soon I
hope to feel your warmth again.
I will treasure you till then.

All the good times,
the adventures that we shared.
Happy memories in the air.
