This House Is Not A Home Lyrics - Burt Bacharach

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
