Real Life, Real Lyrics ...

Artist picture
A couple of friends that get together and play for fun. If someone else likes it ... that's a bonus.
The music we're working on right now is acoustic based with lyrics that touch upon real life situations, or feelings that most people can relate to. We use various people, for various parts ... from a circle of friends. All the basic music is first conceived on acoustic guitar by Doug Dillman.

Story behind the song
Inspired by my oldest daughter Darian, who at the time was 6. She asked my ex-wife a year after the divorce … “Mommy, I know you have your house and Daddy has his, but sometimes I wish we could be together again.” Who loses most in divorce? Lyrics/Music/Acoustic Guitar: Doug Dillman -- Vocals: Doug Dillman and Thom Luther - Electric Guitar Solos/Bass: Mark Coers - Drums/Percussion: Robert Cooper
Lyrics
Divorced back in '99 Family life left behind Thought we had a plan Loved you all I can Nothing I can do My kids helped me through Empty feeling I'm going through No more me and you Your change of heart Has changed all our lives But you don't care Everything's about you Lookin' out for number 1 Just livin' for yourself Makes it hard for everybody else Well the years go by The kids grown up Storybook dreams have turned to dust Nothing that they can do Empty feeling they're going through No more Mom and Dad Buried the dreams they once had Your change of heart Has changed all our lives But you don't care Everything's about you Lookin' out for number 1 Just livin' for yourself Makes it hard for everybody else (2x) Mommy I know you have your house And Daddy has his house, too Sometimes I just wish We could be together again Your change of heart Has changed all our lives
