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 a face appears. 
But it's just a crazy game 
And it ends, 
It ends in tears. 

So 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.
