A House Is Not A Home A chair is still a chair Even when there's no one sittin' 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 An' no one there You can kiss goodnight . . . A room is still a room Even when there's nothin' 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 An' one of us Has a broken heart . . . Now an' then I call your name An' 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 An' turn the key Oh please be there Still in love with me . . . < instrumental bridge > I'm not meant to live alone Turn this house into a home When I climb the stair An' turn the key Oh please be there Still in love with me . . . ~ from the Motion Picture "A House is Not a Home" Music by Burt Bacharach and lyrics by Hal David , 1964 Arranged Don Costa and Conducted by Nick Perito Produced by Don Costa Productions, Inc.
