I walk up to my door and hate to turn the key
Emptiness is all that waits inside for me
That's how it is when the one you love is gone
That's how it is when your house is not a home
I look around and see things marked with his and hers
Things like this just seem to make things that much worse
That's how it is since I've lived my life alone
That's how it is since my house is not a home
That's how it is since my house is not a home

Is there a way out for a soul so torn as mine?
Each day I live I'm like a prisoner
Has since been broken out of hold


That's how it is
Ask anyone who lives alone
That's how it is
When your house is not the home
