IT TAKES LOVE TO MAKE A HOUSE A HOME

    
I'VE BEEN THINKIN' ABOUT YOU,
IT'S EASY DRINKIN' WITHOUT YOU.
IT HELPS ME SPEND THE HOURS ALONE.
FOUR WALLS DON'T MAKE A PRISON,
THERE'S NO IRON BARS THAT GLISTEN.
BUT IT TAKES LOVE TO MAKE A HOUSE A HOME.

IT TAKES MORE THAN KNOWIN',
THAT THERE'S A PLACE THAT I'LL BE GOIN'.
WHEN THEY TELL ME THAT IT'S CLOSIN' TIME AGAIN.
ON MY WAY HOME I'M PRAYIN',
THAT I'LL HEAR YOUR VOICE SAYIN'.
WELCOME HOME, COME ON IN.

BUT THERE'S NO ONE THERE TO MEET ME.
AN EMPTY ROOM TO GREET ME.
THE ONLY SOUNDS ARE ECHOES OF MY OWN.
I GUESS I SHOULDN'T BE BLUE,
AT LEAST I'VE GOT A HOUSE TO COME TO.
BUT IT TAKES LOVE TO MAKE A HOUSE A HOME.
