A House Is Not A Home

Brook Benton

Composed by: Burt Bacharach/Hal David
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.
