The House Where Nobody Lives

                          There’s a house on my block that’s abandoned and cold                          Folks moved out of it a long time ago                                            And they took all their things and they never came back                                     Looks like its haunted with the windows all cracked                            And everyone calls it the house                                    The house where nobody lives    Once it held laughter once it held dreams            Did they throw it away do they know what it means    Did someone’s heart break                                      Or did someone do somebody wrong Well the paint was all cracked it was peeled off the wood Papers were stacked on the porch where I stood And the weeds had grown up just as high as the door There were birds in the chimney and an old chest of drawers Looks like no-one will ever come back to The house where nobody lives Chorus So if you find someone someone to have someone to hold Don’t trade it for silver don’t trade it for gold Cos I have all of life’s treasures and they’re fine and they’re good They remind me that houses are just made of wood What makes a house grand oh it aint the roof or the doors If there’s love in a house it’s a palace for sure Without love it aint nothin’ but a house A house where nobody lives Without love it aint nothin’ but a house A house where nobody lives
