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
