MARIUS
There's a grief that can't be spoken, there's a pain goes on and on
Empty chairs at empty tables, now my friends are dead and gone
Here they talked of revolution, here it was they lit the flame
Here they sang about tomorrow and tomorrow never came

From the table in the corner, they could see a world reborn
And they rose with voices ringing and I can hear them now
The very words that they had sung became their last communion
On the lonely barricade at dawn

Oh my friends, my friends, forgive me, that I live and you are gone
There's a grief that can't be spoken, there's a pain goes on and on
Phantom faces at the window, phantom shadows on the floor
Empty chairs at empty tables where my friends will meet no more

Oh my friends, my friends, don't ask me what your sacrifice was for
Empty chairs at empty tables where my friends will sing no more
