A House Is Not A Home Lyrics


Aretha Franklin A House Is Not A Home


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 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 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 please be there.
Still in love with me.

Yea...

I'm not meant to live alone.
Turn this house into a home.
When I climb the stair
and turn the keys.
Please be there,
still in love
with me.
