A House Is Not a Home Songtext
von Mel Tormé

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

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
I am coming home
