D-DU-UDU
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.
