Story behind the song

This song was recorded live off the floor shortly after Garry's Mom passed away.
The song tells the story of how his DAD took over her place at the table.

Lyrics

He sits alone at the table 
in the chair that used to be hers
and he waits for the day
that God calls him away
to be safe in her arms once again
The lines on his face weren't there yesterday
and the tears he has cried have not helped
though his heart goes on beating it's been broken apart, what he'd do to be safe in her arms
He always thought he'd be the one 
that God would call home first
never once had he imagined life without her
he even had a good-bye letter that she'd never get to read 
but he tucked it away in her hand..
He knew that some day he would join her
so really he had no fear
he knew the joy that they'd share
when she greeted him there
and he'd be safe in her arms once again

He sits alone at the table in the chair that used to be hers.
