(Johnny Russell - Teddy Wilburn)

We were proud of this house that we found on a street in the nice part of town

Had it furnished with care we were once happy here now it's a beautiful unhappy home

Planted red sweet hard roses for you painted our rooms your favorite blue

Now the colors remain but our love's not the same oh it's a beautiful unhappy home

What a beautiful unhappy home it's so hard to believe it's our own

But we're both held here by a child we love dear in this beautiful unhappy home

Yes we're both held here...

In our beautiful unhappy home
