eastcoastwendy This track was written by my dear friend Bobby Hill. Here Bobby Dove sings it with haunting melancholy. The steel guitar evokes a harmony between Bobby Hill, Bobby Dove and the real world (again). Music doesn’t get better than this.

lyrics

Welcome to the Real World Again
Written by Robert Hill and Bobby Dove

My tears are softly falling
as her phone rings in the dark
she isn’t there, she doesn’t care
for her it’s just a lark
as I sit here in my lonely room
my heart is sinking in the gloom
and it’s welcome to the real world again

Yes it’s welcome to the real world again
a plaything to be loved just now and then
she told me that she cared for me
on her love I could depend
but it’s welcome to the real world again

I saw her as a fairy princess
shrouded in the mist
a vision of my hopes and dreams
just waiting for my kiss
but life is not a fairy tale
no clouds or castles will prevail
it’s welcome to the real world again

Yes it’s welcome to the real world again
I guess I’ll have to learn to understand
that if she’s really leaving me, my fairy tale will end
and it’s welcome to the real world again

I thought she really loved me
I thought that I could fill
an empty corner of her life
but I guess I never will
for she left me standing in the night
with dreams that vanish with the light
and it’s welcome to the real world again

Yes it’s welcome to the real world again
I wonder if my heart will ever mend
she’s gone ahead and left me
now there’s no use to pretend
and it’s welcome to the real world again
Yes it’s welcome to the real world again
