House Is Not a Home
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I walk through these halls but nothing feels the same
Where we once made our lives, it's now so empty
The same paint is on the walls
The same songs, I use to sing alone
We'd run through the night but now it's so cold (so cold)
Oh, this house is not a home
Cuz love don't live here anymore (since you been gone)
I never felt this all alone since you went away
Cuz this house is not a home (love don't live here)
Why don't it feel like it felt before?
I know you're never coming back
This time is it over? (over)
I look in the mirror and you're still standing there
It's just an illusion of what use to be
So I lay in the bed we shared
Where we made love a million times I swear
Can't face the truth that you moved on, you're gone
Oh, this house is not a home
Cuz love don't live here anymore (since you been gone)
I never felt this all alone since you went away
Cuz this house is not a home (love don't live here no more)
Why don't it feel like it felt before?
I know you're never coming back
This time is it over? (over)
*Bridge*
In these rooms we were together
But now were so far apart
We should of tried to make it better
But then you went and left and torn up my heart
When you left
No no no
(Love don't live here)
(Since you been gone)
(It's so lonely)
(When you coming home?)
(Love don't live here)
Love don't live here anymore
(Since you been gone)
Since you went away baby why didn't you stay?
I'm alone now, it's so lonely baby
Since you went away
It's not the same
Is it over? Is it over?
Am I right? Am I right? Am I right?
