If houses had hearts and feelings like people do Our house would cry its heart out for me and you Papers and milk bottles left by the door The lovers who lived there don't love anymore And with no one to care all the flowers have died If houses had feelings (if houses had feelings) our house would cry If houses could hurt and remember like people do Our house would hurt remembering me and you Cobwebs in the corners and dust on the floor Laughter don't ring through its halls anymore And the fireplace is cold where the flames have all died If houses had feelings (if houses had feelings) our house would cry There's plenty of room for the children to play And shade trees will grow in the backyard someday It's a place to be happy if two people try If houses had feelings (if houses had feelings) then our house would cry
