Burt Bacharach
A House Is Not a Home
[Verse 1]
A chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there to hold you tight
And no one there you can kiss good night

[Verse 2]
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing there but room
But a room is not a house
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart

[Verse 3]
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends it ends in tears
Darling have a heart
Don't let one mistake keep us apart

[Outro]
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn my house into a home
When I climb the stairs
And turn the key
Oh please be there
Still in love with me
