Love Don’t Live Here No More

If you looked inside this house
You wouldn’t notice a change
Same old furniture’s in place
Same old curtains still hang
But the thing that made this house a home
Has walked out the door
She and I still occupy
But love don’t live here no more

First it moved from our bedroom
Right onto the couch
Then somehow it disappeared
Like it was never around
Now broken hearts and shattered dreams
Lie unseen on the floor
And we go on like nothing’s wrong
But love don’t live here no more

There is a fire still burning
But only from the hearth
For the flame that burned inside of us
Has now grown cold and dark

And the memories of a better love
Still hang by the door
But what you see’s not reality
‘Cause love don’t live here no more

(Instrumental)

There is a fire still burning
But only from the hearth
For the flame that burned inside of us
Has now grown cold and dark

And the memories of a better love
Still hang by the door
But what you see’s not reality
‘Cause love don’t live here no more

Yeah what you see’s not reality
‘Cause love don’t live here----no more
