House of Strangers lyrics

Something’s hanging on my mind
I feel it in my heart
You’ve been leaving notes unsigned
Leaving out sweetheart
We used to have a warm breakfast table
Time to sit and talk to you
Now I face the morning paper
Won’t you look at me
Tell baby what’s new

(Chorus)
I can’t live in a house of strangers baby
Can’t we talk to each other
I can’t live in a house of strangers darling
As one friend to another
Don’t come home just for sleeping
Times are bad but talk is cheaper
I can’t live in a house of strangers baby

Where’s that famous loving smile
Where’s my funny clown
I had you with me for awhile
Thought you’d stick around
You were always good conversation
Now it seems there’s nothing to say
What’s the latest news in the nation
And where’s my man
Why did he go away
Repeat Chorus

And where’s my man
Why did he go away

Repeat Chorus
