(Bacharach/David)

|
|
A chair is still a chair
|
Even when no one is not sitting there
|
But a chair is not a house
|
A house is not a home
|
When there's no one there to hold you tight
|
And no one there you can kiss goodnight
|
|
|
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 you name
|
And suddenly a face appears
|
But it's just a crazy game
|
That when it ends
|
It ends in tears
|
|
|
Oh, so darling, have a heart
|
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
|
A hurt man to live alone
|
Turn this house into a home
|
When I Climb the stairs and turn the key
|
Please be there
|
Still in love with me
|
|
|
|
Oh darling, have a heart
|
Don't let one mistake keep us apart
|
A hurt man to live alone
|
Turns this house into a home
|
When I Climb the stairs and turn the key
|
Please be there
|
Still in love with me
|
|
|
Still in love with me
|
