Bethany

(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.

The good Lord ought not make girls this pretty If he don't want men to fall in love And, baby, maybe you shouldn't push If you don't want me to shove It could be I'm just hopeful dreamin' And you don't want me at all, baby But I dream in bright, bold destiny Where you and me are crazy And we do it any way because we're supposed to Still I wake up far away, where I can't hold you (Chorus) Bethany, what's meant to be Might not be what's best for you I might be loath to agree Sadly, not me, but time will choose If the path you're on leads you down To the paradise you seek Or the life you truly need And away from me... Bethany I'm thinking, if you weren't meant to love me Then you'd up and run away And if you're not supposed to be the sunshine Then you wouldn't light up my day Though it's hard from this perspective Viewing life through my own eyes, baby And I so often get confused Where I lose the plot, and maybe If I tried to make some changes, I'd feel better But then you might get away, and I can't let ya (Chorus)

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.

I Can't Find the Words

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.
