A House Without Love

For years we both have lived on pride, dear And we agree that love is gone Why, oh why do we keep tryin' A house without love is not a home. The love light in your eyes has faded And I'm contented just to roam We slaved to gain a worthless treasure A house without love is not a home. No matter where our footsteps wander I know we'll both be all alone With the pride that came between us A house without love is not a home. The simple things have gone forever We wanted wealth to call our own And now we've reached the hour of parting A house without love is not a home. --- A House Without Love - Hank Williams, Jr.
