| | | THERE is a little room in my heart | |
| Where we used to live together— | |
| A very cozy little room. | |
| |
| You walked out carelessly, | |
| Leaving the door half open; | 5 |
| But I closed and locked it, crying. | |
| |
| Sometimes when I pass the door | |
| I wish you would come back, | |
| Throw wide the seaward windows, | |
| Kindle the fire again; | 10 |
| Although I know we are both better | |
| Out here in the changing, crowded world— | |
| For, after all, it is a very little room. | | | | |
