Before He Did

(Brian Hendrix)

A song about a guy who's talking to a girl (metaphorically) and wondering what if he met her before her current man met her. Would they be happy? Would she be happier? Would it work? From the guy's perspective, he's pretty sure he'd make her happier than her current man.

What would your life be like I don't know, to be honest I just know you'd never feel alone Pretty sure we'd light those fires We got too much in common To ever feel too far from home Where'd we all come from How'd we get the sun Those mysteries don't grip me I only care about one (Chorus) What if I met you before he did And we ran away into the night, the night Planted the seeds that made the grass so lush and green Our love's heat put the stars up in the sky Maybe I'm just dreaming, but the possibilities Unfolding here forever, if you belonged to me But it's all a fantasy, I realize life's what it is... But... what if I met you before he did What would our days be like Would we go deaf from laughter Would you tire of me lookin' at your eyes I bet we'd float around in the sky 'Til we found ever after And I'd still be beggin' for more time Does it ever cross your mind Like it crosses mine Makes me wonder 'bout the world The only question I opine (Chorus)

Bethany

By Brian Hendrix


About a girl so gorgeous and caring that the guy falls in love with her, to the point he thinks they're destined to be together, and also the point that everything he experiences in life, he starts to believe it's a sign they're supposed to be together, or else why would those things be happening. A pretty one-sided, lovelorn story. Though he still understands that he might not be right for her, and just wants her to be happy.

Out of My Misery

This is a lighthearted song with a more serious tone in subject matter. It's more or less like a breakup song, and something that most people can probably relate to pretty well.

Here In the Middle

By Brian Hendrix


A song about being middle aged, but more than that it's about being just caught in a place where you're old enough for some things, but too young for others, and life is just still confusing.

The 70's

By Howard Aronson


This lyric is about my love of music, particularly rock and roll. The 70s were very influential time for me. It was between the ages of 10 and 19. During that time I was exposed to a lot of great rock and roll bands, and had the opportunity to see many of them live. It would shape my love for music more than any other genre. Today as I write lyrics, many of those bands are inspiring to me. This is also a lyric about the memories that I have going to those concerts, and hanging out with some of my high school friends. We all love music, and we were all exposed to so much of it.
