One Less Bell To Answer/A House Is Not A Home

Lyrics

Mmm
 ♪
 One less bell to answer
 One less egg to fry
 One less man to pick up after
 I should be happy
 But all I do is cry, cry
 No more laughter
 Oh I should be happy (oh why did he go?)
 I only know that since he left
 My life's so empty
 Though I try to forget
 It just can't be done
 Each time the doorbell rings
 I still run
 I don't know how in the world
 To stop thinking of him (I should be happy)
 'Cause I still love him so
 I end each day the way I started (start and end each day crying)
 Crying my heart out
 One less bell to answer
 One less egg to fry
 One less man (one less man)
 To pick up after
 No more laughter, no more laught-
 Since he went away (since he went away)
 Since he went away
 Mmm
 ♪
 A chair is still a chair
 Even when there's no one sitting there
 But a chair is not a house
 And a house is not a home
 When there's no one there
 To hold you tight and no one there
 You can kiss goodnight
 
 A room is still a room
 Even when there's nothing there but gloom
 But a room is not a house
 And a house is not a home
 When the two of us are far apart
 And one of us has a broken heart
 Now and then I call your name
 And suddenly your face appears
 But it's just a crazy game
 And when it ends, it ends in tears
 ♪
 So darling, have a heart
 Don't let one mistake keep us apart
 Oh, I'm not meant to live alone
 Turn this house into a home
 When I climb the stairs and turn the key
 Oh please, be there still in love with me
 One less bell to answer
 Each time the doorbell rings I still run (one less egg to fry)
 I'm lucky I got one less man (one less man)
 To pick up after
 No more laughter (no more laughter)
 No more laugh-
 Since he went away (since he went away)
 Since he went away
 All I do is cry
