House Of Strangers Lyrics By Jim Gilstrap

    something’s hanging on your mind
    i feel it in my heart
    you’ve been leaving notes unsigned
    leaving out sweetheart
    we used to have one breakfast table
    time to sit and talk to you
    now i face the morning paper
    won’t you look at me
    tell me baby what’s new

    i can’t leave in a house of strangers baby
    can’t we talk to each other
    i can’t leave in a house of strangers darling
    as one friend to another
    don’t come home
    just fall asleep and
    turn down bed talk is cheap
    i can’t live in a house of strangers baby

    where’s the famous loving smile
    where’s my funny clown
    i had you with me for a while
    thought you’d stick around
    you were always good conversations
    now it seems there’s nothing to say
    what’s the latest news in the nation
    and where’s my woman
    why did she go away

    i can’t leave in a house of strangers baby
    can’t we talk to each other
    i can’t leave in a house of strangers darling
    as one friend to another
    don’t come home
    just fall asleep and
    turn down bed talk is cheap
    i can’t live in a house of strangers baby

    and where’s my woman
    why does she go away

    i can’t leave in a house of strangers baby
    can’t we talk to each other
    i can’t leave in a house of strangers darling
    as one friend to another
    don’t come home
    just fall asleep and
    turn down bed talk is cheap
    i can’t live in a house of strangers baby
    can’t we talk to each other
    i can’t leave in a house of strangers darling
    as one friend to another
