A chair is still a chair   e-ven 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

( Bass)      
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.

( Bass)      


                                                   
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

                                               ( Bass)
When I climb the stair and turn the key Oh please be there still in


love with me.
