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 (Cry, 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 to pick up after No more laughter No more love Since he went away Since he went away... Oooh, A chair is still a chair Even when there's no one sitting there Well, I'm not meant to live alone Turn this house into a home When I climb the stair and turn the key Oh, please be there Still in love with me... (One less bell to answer) Each time the doorbell rings, I still run (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 All I do is cry
