Lyrics

"Livin' In Our Big House"
Margie & Art Corey Copyright 2016 (c)

1st Verse
Livin' in a big house, where the ceilings are so tall
And every time I turn around, oh....I feel so small

2nd Verse
With so many windows and so, so many doors
I can't seem to find myself, oh, not any more

Chorus
It use to be us, oh..... it use to be we
But now it seems like it's always you....and never me..........

Solo...........

Bridge
Where did we go to? What happened to us?
Somehow we got lost , in all this fuss.......
Now, there can't always be, just one person right
Why is everything, Ooooo.....such a fight?

A beautiful house can't be a home
If one of us always feels so alone.............


I don't want to have to be by myself, Ooooo to be myself
Well, I'm not me, Oooooooooo when I'm with you.............

Very interesting sound. I dig it. Very trippy. I like the guitar.

This is a good song with a great mood and vision, sort of 70's funk/soul meets chill-hip hop meets lounge Jazz. Great potential in this one.

An alternative approach to what could have been just another simple time. Creative backing tracks leads me to think that the composer wanted to change things up from the norm. Song takes a bit of a sinister twist in the bridge turning slightly dark and haunting. Interesting blend of styles. Lots of really nice things happening in this track. If you listen closely the background and little transition sections have a lot of thought put into them. Parts placed very well in the mix and with great attention to effects and presentation. A brilliant production in that sense.
