(neal coty/pat terry)



There's an empty old house

On top of a hill

Covered with branches and vines



It was a dream house

We saved up to build it

Back when he was mine



Last night i got crazy

Walked up on the front porch

Don't know what i hoped to find

Along came his memory whispering to me

And he asked me to come inside



But my heart wasn't in it

He's not there

And i can't go home

My heart wasn't in it

The walls are standing

But the love is gone



Just for a moment

I stood in the doorway

Back in his arms again

Lost in the past

And the shadow he cast

About to leap over the edge



But my heart wasn't in it

He's not there

And i can't go home

My heart wasn't in it

The walls are standing

But the love is gone



Too many memories

Too many tears

I've tried to get over him

All of these years



But my heart wasn't in it

He's not there

And i can't go home

My heart wasn't in it

The walls are standing

But the love is gone



My heart wasn't in it

He's not there

And i can't go home

My heart wasn't in it

The walls are standing

But the love is gone
