Your Name

(Brian Hendrix)

Started singing to my girlfriend one night, a cover of Elton John's "Your Song," and she said she didn't like that song. So, okay, I wrote her her own song. She liked this one better, though maybe only because it was for her specifically. Now she can tell everybody...

When I hear the roof ticking with rain When the thunder cries out in its pain When the birds up there speak And when new people meet All I hear on the wind is your name When the trumpets sound in the parade All the echoes from deep canyons came And I heard the same word That I've heard oft before All I hear on the wind is your name (Chorus) It's your name It's the language I expect angels speak Your name Soft and warm like a kiss on the cheek And no matter where I hear From far or from near Every sound I hear sounds like your name If e'er the hard times are the same I go searching for something that's sane I'm reminded that you Pull me out of the blue All I hear on the wind is your name It directs me away from the blame Lets me know something good has thus came A hard life spent just might Float away with your light All I hear on the wind is your name (Chorus) My burden was heavy with chains No strength left to break out of those things But in the instant you smiled I was freer by miles All I hear on the wind is your name My life now and forever has changed Feels so good to be all rearranged Your love, from the start Has swollen my heart All I hear on the wind is your name (Chorus)

Country Girls

By Brian Hendrix


I grew up in the hollers of the Appalachia. I'm convinced that there's nothing like a country girl. So I decided I'd write an anthem for those country girls. They deserve it. Plus I think the second verse is very clever - got some double entendre happening for the college football fans out there.

Oh, Molly

By Brian Hendrix


This is one of those ones that only a songwriter will get. Lying in bed, the same music playing in my head over and over, "Have I heard this before?" Nope. Okay. Let me try to add lyrics to it. This is what I came up with. The words are self explanatory. The chorus of the song is the last four lines of each verse.

She's Your Woman

By Brian Hendrix


My newest. Wrote on 2/8/20. About men sheltering the storm with women and their emotions, though going with the flow of it all because, after all, we're just different but still good together. Petty arguments shouldn't derail love. We just have to hold on. Men, just remember that she's your woman. I really like this one. Really touches that country nerve.

Ol' No. 7 (Whiskey From Tennessee)

By Brian Hendrix


This is my baby. I post this reluctantly. Though nonetheless I'll post it. Long story short: I ran into an old buddy whose wife had left him years ago. He's still around, but a shell of himself and drunk. I woke up at 4a.m. one morning and jotted this down in notepad; it still gives me chills when I read it or sing it. It's a true country song. Though in the same vein as someone like Townes, take note of the verse-chorus hybrid structure, wherein the chorus starts via picking up tempo and vocalization after the second bar in each verse. It's about Jack Daniels, FYI.

Young

By Karlo Čavlović


Time flies by faster than ever and every moment feels precious, unique and a day will come when we're not here anymore, but we will still continue living in the memories of our loved ones.
