Man In The Yellow Chair

by Matthew French

/

about

A tribute to my grandfather and all of the fathers, grandfathers, and father figures who's legacy of love and peace lives on in us.

lyrics

There’s a table in that kitchen
Full of memories and wishes
Stories, dreams, an empty old ash tray

Through the haze of cigarettes
A voice speaks soft with quiet wisdom
Hear it when I go there in my mind

Hello, how you doing
Always got time for me and you
Sit down for a while, talk about anything

Hangin’ on every word he said
All the advice I’ll never forget
Sometimes I wish that I could go back there
One more moment with the man in the yellow chair

Time to time I wonder
Where I’d be if I still had you
Am I half the man you thought that I could be

Through the haze of my regrets
Your voice speaks soft with quiet wisdom
Hear it when I go there in my mind

Hello, how you doing
Always got time for me and you
Sit down for a while, talk about anything

Hangin’ on every word he said
All the advice I’ll never forget
Sometimes I wish that I could go back there
One more moment with the man in the yellow chair

One day I know I’ll find you there
Lord knows I’m praying
Sitting at your table up in heaven
You’ll be saying

Hello, how you doing
I’ve been right here waiting for you
Sit down for a while, talk about anything

I’ll hang on every word you say
Til then I’m longing for that day
God I just can’t wait to see you there
One more moment with the man in the yellow chair

One more moment
Just one more moment

Singer-Songwriter Matthew French’s music and lyrics catch at the strings of hope hidden within heartache. Guitar in hand, coffee cup nearby; the melody transports and the words tell a story. Our story. A human story. Matthew’s audiences feel themselves reflected in the warmth of his voice. Not strangers, just unmet friends. ... more
