This House Is So Lonely

I come home in the evening
And you’re no longer here
I go straight to the refrigerator
And get myself a beer
I think back to how it used to be
Not too long ago
You’d always be waiting for me
Now it’s so hard to let go

This house is so lonely
Since you went away
There’s no one to greet me
At the end of the day
I guess nothing lasts forever
And I know it’s true
Cause this house is so lonely
Since I lost you

Now I wake up in the morning
And I don’t hear a sound
I keep listening for the clicking
But it’s nowhere to be found
You were always such a loyal friend
A constant in my life
I’m sorry that it had to end
But now you’ll have no more strife

This house is so lonely
Since you went away
There’s no one to greet me
At the start of the day
I guess nothing lasts forever
And I know it’s true
Cause this house is so lonely
Since I lost you

Oh, how I miss your presence
Now that you are gone
You know I’ll always love you
Boy, you made this house a home

This house is so lonely
Since you went away
There’s no one to greet me
At the end of the day
I guess nothing lasts forever
And I know it’s true
Cause this house is so lonely
Since I lost you
