What Gives Me Strength

(Brian Hendrix)

A story about a guy who was pretty much a hard case who was down and out, had given up on life, and was angry at the world, but found a good woman to calm him down and change his life. Many such cases.

In the winter of my longing, with my bones to nearly froze You wandered in and found me bleeding, lying broken on the floor The summer air flew from your breath, as the sun poured from your eyes You fixed the pieces that I couldn't, despite the lifetimes that I tried (Chorus) You're like my Kryptonite, making me fall weak When you kiss me, baby, you can calm the beast My body trembles, lips to my knees With those soft words in my ears that you do speak From my lonely valley, to your loving peak You're my weakness, baby, and that's what gives me strength I held anger and resentment as my nobler qualities I was in conflict with myself while waging war on thoughts of peace Then the blossom of your flower brought the beauty of the quiet You gave a dried up soul the moisture and ability to cry (Chorus)

One Night in Heaven

By Brian Hendrix


This one's about something you experience with a significant other that goes so right that it doesn't feel real at the moment. It feels like it's just make believe. I wrote this sitting on the porch at about 1am with the small of honeysuckle all through the air, as strong as perfume.

Pain Don't Last

By Brian Hendrix


This is a pretty self explanatory song. The basic story is a guy is heartbroken over his woman leaving him, and people seem to keep meddling in his life, asking if he's okay, and he wants to just be left alone so tells them that he is. This is something a lot of people go through. We need time and peace and room to breathe but can't get it.

Never Would Break Your Heart

By Brian Hendrix


I haven't written a serious song in a while. This one popped in my head when I was least expecting it, and it sort of wrote itself how it wanted to be. It's a relatively short song, but I do like what it's saying. It's basically a man telling a woman all the things he'll never be, as to not get her expectations up. Though one of those things he'll never be also includes a man that will break her heart.

White Trash Wedding

By Brian Hendrix


I come from a place where "white trash" is thrown out as an insult, but we don't care. We're just trying to live! And while our weddings might not be fancy, wealthy affairs, we sure do have fun! Until the cops show up, of course. So, this is just a fun little song about a wild family at a wild wedding. We usually don't make it to the receptions!

Rejection

These lyrics describe a young man's infatuation with a young woman. They go on a date, because of nerves, and inexperience he blows it, she was not impressed. He hopes to get another opportunity with this girl, but he knows that it is his last chance.

Wunschfrei

By Ulrich Bergau


Dieser Song ist denen gewidmet, die, wie so viele in die Jahre gekommene Paare, wunderbar widerspiegelt. Sie rafft sich auf und schubst ihren Partner förmlich an endlich das tägliche Einerlei mit ihren Wünschen einzutauschen.
