Perry Como – A House Is Not A Home lyrics
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
