Steve Tyrell - Back To Bacharach

A House Is Not A Home

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

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

Now and then I call your name and suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game and when it ends it ends in tears

Darling have a heart, don't let 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
