about

A true-blue, traditional country tear-jerker. A love so strong that it goes beyond the mortal flesh and soul of the man and touches every inanimate object involved in the relationship. The man is ashamed and unsure how to tell those objects that he has lost the love they all so chericed.

lyrics

A House Ain’t A Home

These walls have heard the tender words we’ve spoken,
felt the sting of a bitter one or two,
held up through the years and never fallen,
borne some scars and gone from white to blue.
These floors stood the pounding of our footsteps,
swept away on the endless sands of time.
That ole front door; he’s seen it all and never spoken, until now he’s held it all inside…

Now they’re calling your name, so soft and tender.
They don’t know you’re gone, they don’t know we’re through.
Oh I’ve got to tell them life is all over,
‘cause a house ain’t a home, without you.

We built this house together; foundation to the ceiling, back when all we ever needed was each other.
Surely that’s the reason why it feels the way I’m feeling,
it was meant to be the home where we would live and love forever…

Now it’s calling your name, so soft and tender.
It don’t know you’re gone, it don’t know we’re through.
Oh I’ve got it life is all over,
and a house ain’t a home, without you.

There’s tears on the windows, oh it’s not rain that’s falling…‘cause a house ain’t a home, without you.
No this house ain’t a home, without you.
