If I Gave You Flowers

(Brian Hendrix)

Sometimes breakups happen abruptly and are anything but mutual, and so the person left is resolved to get their lover back. This is a song about that. "If I gave you flowers" was just a line in my head all day. I couldn't go to sleep until I wrote this song. I'm really happy with the way it turned out, especially the chorus. I think the wording throughout is very clever.

V1 Seems that she don't wanna keep nothin' Took what we had and threw it away All that's left are burning questions, why she didn't stay Maybe I wasn't good to her Not what she needed, and so that was that But, Lord, I'm just a man and I want her back I want her to try again with me I try to stay strong but I'm weak So the plan's to give her something She decides to keep (Chorus) If I gave you a phone call Would your hang-up be that it's too soon And if I fetched you the sun Would you still want the moon So if I sang you a love song Would you listen for old time's sake And if I gave you flowers, baby Would you keep 'em in a vase V2 In my mind the clock is a-tickin' With a line of guys 'round the block Vying for her heart hoping they come out on top Or maybe she needs some alone time Nary a one would stand 'em a chance And so I hope her feet are just too tired to dance If so, I'll wait around 'til she's rested Swoop in and try to give it a whirl Hoping maybe she's kept the memories When we used to twirl (Chorus) V3 The reflections of her are relentless Her face follows me wherever I move Though it's a pretty picture that I hope I never lose Some people would say it ain't healthy How I'm holding too long to a hope I'm sayin' she'll come around while they're sayin' she won't But I remember the girl being happy A lifetime not too long in the past And if she keeps me close again This time it'll last (Chorus)

If it Helps You Sleep

By Brian Hendrix

I never could sleep well. Even as a kid, I'd just toss and turn. Not sure what it is. So last night I'm struggling to sleep, and wondering if I should click on YouTube for some "tips to help you sleep" type of deal. I thought, well, as long as it helps you sleep. So this song popped into my mind. This isn't a true story for me, though is for a ton of people. It's a genderless song that could apply to men or women. For me, I'd never swallow it up like the guy in this song. I'd call her out quick! The real me is about that reckoning. Songwriter me is more magnanimous.

The Judge

By Brian Hendrix

Another western song I wrote. Typically I write about outlaws and the suchlike, but this one's about a bounty hunter nicknamed "The Judge." I was going to write a very, very long song, about seven verses or so, explaining his real name, where he grew up, etc. Though I think I'd like to make a series of songs about The Judge. We'll see how it goes. This one's very catchy.

What's So Wrong with That

By Brian Hendrix

A lot of emphasis is placed on girls and guys meeting each other the "right" way now in our overly PC culture. I don't know anything about all of that; all I know is that people are never going to become close and fall in love if they never meet. So meet people how you want, where you want. As long as you respect other people, don't let anyone tell you what to do. This is a song about two people meeting in a bar and hitting it off. Soft, light, and most importantly, it's a true story for countless people.

Woman's Duality

By Brian Hendrix

A song I started writing many years ago. Dug it up in a very old .doc file, figured I'd try to touch it up and finish it. Being frank, I doubt this is one that'd ever strike it #1, though it's a strong track for any country or folk album. This is one of those songs that actually has quite a lot to say in very few words. I'm happy and proud with how it turned out. The last verse is my favorite, though it'll just read as XXXXX here. Though if anyone likes the first few verses, the last one is the strongest. It says the most metaphorically in the least amount of words. That's what songwriting's supposed to do, I guess. I like it enough to include it here. Plus, this is the way many men feel. Women with their contradictory nature at times... it can get -- well, let's just say "odd."

Sandkastenliebe

By Nadine Schulze

Der Titel verrät es bereits - es geht um den ersten Schwarm aus frühester Kindheit. Der Mensch, mit dem man im Kindergarten, in der Schule oder an den Nachmittagen so viel Zeit verbrachte. Der erste Mensch, bei dem das Herz schneller schlug. Vom Schicksal plötzlich getrennt und nie wieder gesehen - da bleiben nur die Gedanken daran.

Dystopian Nonsense

By M P WEISS

This piece is about how blind we are to see that the authors that were terrified about where technology might land us has landed us here already. We live in a dystopian society and there's nothing we can do about it now...
