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 

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 
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 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 stair and turn the key, 
Oh, please be there still in love with me
