A House Is Not a Home Songtext
von Kurt Elling

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 say goodnight
And no one there you can kiss goodnight

A room is a 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
And one of us has a broken hearts

Now and then I′ll 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 stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there
Still in love with me

Now and then I'll call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it′s just a crazy game
When it ends, it ends in tears
It ends in tears
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 stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there
Still in love with
Still in love with me

Still in love with me
Still in love with me
Still in love with me
Still in love with me
Still in love with me


Please be there
Oh, please be there
Oh, please be there
Please be there
Please be there
Still in love with me
