"A House Is Not A Home" lyrics
"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 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
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 stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there still in love with me
I'm not meant to live alone
Turn this house into a home
When I climb the stairs and turn the key
Oh, please be there still in love with me

Melody Gardot - "All That I Need Is Love" Boys like to think they can have it all

Mary Chapin Carpenter - "He Thinks He'll Keep Her" She makes his coffee, she makes his bed
She does the laundry, she keeps him fed
When she was twenty-one she wore her mother's lace
She said "forever" with a smile upon her face
She does the car-pool,...
Katie Melua - "I Will Be There" She is like the lady down the road
Or just the woman up the street
Like any mother you may know
To me, she is the one who had it planned
To lead us all to Wonderland
She always wanted us to go
And...
Boz Scaggs - "Look What You've Done To Me" Hope they never end this song
This could take us all night long
I looked at the moon and I felt blue
Then I looked again and I saw you
Eyes like fire in the night
Bridges burning with their light
Now...
Stephen Bishop - "Save It For A Rainy Day" Well, she's kind of pretty
Drives a big car too
And when I hold her in my arms
I never know what to do
If she's got everything she needs
What does she need me for?
I'm just a crazy fool
Comin' back...
