The House Of My Heart. Open the door and step inside I'll show you around, I've got nothing to hide This entryway is where I spend most of my time That way I can protect what is mine. Let's start over here on the right This wing is airy, open, and bright The first room here is where the kids stay I like to sit and watch them play Across the hall over there Are all the rooms my family members share Brothers and sisters, and of course mom and dad They are going nowhere, and for that I'm glad The revolving door over here Is for the friends I hold so dear They are free to come and go as they please Before they leave I give them a little squeeze Let's move along, there is so much more to discover Behind that door is my secret lover And see the door painted black? People go through it and they never come back Now let's go down these stairs This is the cold dark dungeon of despairs I come down here when I'm feeling mean I discovered it when I was just a teen Those that cause me misery and pains Hang from the ceiling bound in chains I torture them and feel no remorse For they showed me none, on life's rocky course Come now, we need to go There is so much more, to you I will show See the wing on the left over yonder? That is where I allow my good feelings to wonder Now let's go up this staircase Bet you never knew it was such a big place Up here is where I keep lovers past There were quite a few that didn't last The attic door is over by that ladder It is full of memories and things that really matter Move on down the hallway there You'll see a door marked "Handle with care" That my dear is where love used to stay I opened the window and he flew away People tell me he will come back I know this, 'cause he didn't bother to pack Move along, no time to stall Your room is at the end of this hall I fixed it up the best I could Seems like you might be here for good Of course I'll have to lock the door I just can't afford to loose anymore And maybe someday you'll want to play I'll open the window and we'll both fly away Meanwhile, you will stay in the house of my heart Where I decide when people depart So relax and try to have some fun This tour is over, finished, done. |

"That my dear is where love used to stay I opened the window and he flew away People tell me he will come back I know this, 'cause he didn't bother to pack" This was very unique and very well done. I enjoyed my tour. thank you. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

The tour may be over but the journey could be a long one. The whole piece flowed smooth from one room to another along with the images of thought. Well done. |

Awwww... Shucks... Balladeer.. gorgeous AND talented? I think I'll have to marry you,grins.. Thank you so much for your wonderful words Hope and taking the time to share them with me.. Susan Caldwell I'm glad you enjoyed the tour, I'm very happy you shared your enjoyment with me,smiles.. Falling rain jealousy is such a waste of energy, if your gonna be passionate move right into hate, But love takes and equal score, so maybe this would be more fun,chuckles.. Thanks so much for your high praise.. Aren't you the wise one,smiles.. Thank you Mark for sharing thoughts.. Yes, the journey will be a long and winding one.. |
