Everybody Disappeared

Everybody Disappeared

Wedding lights across the ceiling
One empty chair beside the band
Everybody dressed for pictures
I keep losing where I stand
You are laughing with your cousins
Twenty feet and a crowded room
Still every face becomes a background
Every time I look at you

I thought I was hiding it
Then you look back too

Everybody disappeared when you looked back
Whole room still moving, but I lost the track
One empty chair beside the floor was the only thing still true
Everybody disappeared when I saw you

Everybody disappeared when I saw you

You cross over during slow songs
Ask why I never came to say hello
I tell you I was giving you your space
You say that wasn't what you hoped
Turns out all night you were counting
Every time I looked away
Two people in the same crowded room
Both waiting on the other one to brave

Everybody disappeared when you looked back
Whole room still moving, but I lost the track
One empty chair beside the floor was the only thing still true
Everybody disappeared when I saw you

I spent the whole night watching
You spent the whole night too
Everybody disappeared when you looked back
That empty chair beside the dance floor gave us away

Everybody disappeared when you crossed the floor
Everybody disappeared, I didn't need them anymore
That empty chair beside the dance floor finally had a view
Everybody disappeared, and there was you

Everybody Disappeared
