Bring the House Down

Well....you told me you loved me With blue eyes of pure devotion And my heart got caught up In that rich emotion Now you put love down Without any hesitation Well....don't expect me To give you a standing ovation But you sure know oh oh How to bring the house down If hurting me was in your lines You did 'em up right when you bowed out I thought I had an angel Waiting in the wings Then I saw a devil Pull the curtain strings Yeah you sure know oh oh How to bring the house down That academy award You are holding now You won him girl Go ahead a take your bow You've got actors On your left and on your right And you're center stage In a sordid spotlight And you sure know oh oh How to bring the house down PROTECTED BY COPYRIGHT

Nicely worded with some vitriolic language... you're better off without her. Best wishes, Keith

I think that many people know how to, "bring the house down"...too many use that talent. Great poem.
