Got no nails in the floor
Got no hinges on the door
Empty frames on the walls
Ain't no ghost in the halls
You can build with earth and stone
Make a place of your own
But the house that has no love
Is the house that never was
Got no dog on the stair
Got no car in the shed
Ain't no number on the sign
Ain't no bird up on the power line
You can build with earth and stone
Make a place of your own
But the house that has no love
Is the house that never was
Wind don't blow through the trees
No one comes and no one leaves
You can live anywhere
But it don't mean you're really there
You can build with earth and stone
Make a place of your own
But the house that has no love
Is the house that never was
Yeah, the house that has no love
Is the house that never was
