One less bell to answer

One less egg to fry

One less man to pick up after

I should be happy

But all I do is cry

I cry no more laughter

Oh I should be happy

Oh why did she go

I only know that since he left

My life's so empty

Though I try to forget it just can't be done

Each time the doorbell rings

I still run

I don't know how in the world

To stop thinking of him

I should be happy

'Cause I still love him so

I end each day the way I start out

Crying my heart out

One less bell to answer

One less egg to fry one less man

One less man

To pick up after

No more laughter no more love

Since he went away

Since he went away

A chair is still a chair

Even when there's no one sitting there

Oh I'm not meant to live alone

Turn this house into a home

When I climb the stairs and turn the key

Oh please be there

Still in love with me

Each time the doorbell rings I still run

One less egg to fry

I got one less man to pick up after

No more laughter no more love

Since he went away

Since he went away

All I do is cry
