We used to be forever partners   we swore we'd never separate      oh, I didn't see it changing      Now, a house is not a home   I'm out in the street tonight   a house is not a home   I'm without a dream tonight      We used to be sister and brother   then came lovers and then came pain      oh, I tried to change it      Now, a house is not a home   I'm out in the street tonight   a house is not a home   I'm without a dream tonight      Love and tears bound us together   I fought the men to protect her      oh, I couldn't understand it      Now, a house is not a home   I'm out in the street tonight   a house is not a home   I'm without her heat tonight      Now, I unravel onto the floor   Hearts are spilled onto the floor      oh I, I couldn't change it      Now, a house is not a home   I'm the one degraded   a house is not a home   all of life has faded
