A chair is still a chair

Even when there's no one sittin' 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

An' no one there

You can kiss goodnight



A room is still a room

Even when there's nothin' 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

An' one of us

Has a broken heart



Now an' then I call your name

An' 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

I'm not meant to live alone

Turn this house into a home



When I climb the stair

An' 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 stair an' turn the key

Oh, please be there

Still in love with me
