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 goodnight
[Verse 2]
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing there but gloom
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
[Bridge]
Now and then, I call your name
And suddenly, your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends, it еnds in tears
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
So, darling, have a heart
Don't lеt one mistake keep us apart
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there, still in love with me
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there, still in love with me
[Outro]
Still in love with me
