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
