"A House Is Not a Home '' is a 1964 ballad recorded by American singer Dionne Warwick, and written by the team of Burt Bacharach and Hal David for the 1964 film of the same name, starring Shelley Winters and Robert Taylor. The song was a modest hit in the United States for Warwick, peaking at # 71 on the pop singles chart as the B - side of the top 40 single, "You 'll Never Get to Heaven (If You Break My Heart) ''. Another version of the song, by Brook Benton, which was the version that appeared in the film, was released at nearly the same time. It debuted two weeks earlier on the Billboard Hot 100. Benton 's version split airplay with Warwick 's, and ultimately peaked at # 75.
