Our House Is Not a Home

Lynn Anderson · Lynn Anderson's Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 [Chart] [1971]

(Curly Putman - Shirley Mayo)



Our house is hushed with only lonely

We had crystal teardrops for our chandelier

Shutters of sadness won't let happiness get in

Our house is not a home for there's never been love in.



Our bedroom has courtains of icy lace

Fine carpets where my restless feet have cased

To be so lovely yet so empty it must be a sin

Our house is not a home for there's never been love in.



It's never known a joy or the sound of tiny feet

In cold protection it looks down on the world like you look down on me

Why do we try to fool the world why do we pretend

Our house is not a home for there's never been love in.



Our house is not a home for there's never been love in...
