Never Would Break Your Heart

(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.

I'll never be an astronaut 
I'll never be the President
I'll never be a war hero, layin' his life on the line
Being anything but hesitant 
I'll never be a millionaire 
I'll never get a brand new start
But I'll never be like the man you loved before me
'Cause I never would break your heart

(Chorus) 
Yeah, baby, I know who I am
And I sure know who I ain't 
The love I give was made to heal
I ain't made to make you ache
I'd give anything to let you know joy
Don't you worry 'bout falling apart
Let old memories die out and fade
'Cause I never would break your heart 

I'll never own a jet airplane
I'll never sail all seven seas
I'll never be so brave to fire the first shot
'Cause I refuse to live on my knees
I'll never be a movie star
I'll never paint world-famous art
And I'll never be like the man who hurt you so
'Cause I never would break your heart

(Chorus x2)

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!

Little Things 'Bout Life

By Brian Hendrix

I think this comes from a place that most of us can relate to. Our parents try to instill this wisdom in us when we're young, typically in small doses and in cliched things that just get pushed around. We ignored it when young, often not even wanting to hear it. Yet when we're grown, and especially when we have kids of our own, we end up pushing the same little pearls of wisdom out there.

The Oriole Who Was a Schoolyard Bully 'til His Wing Broke

By Brian Hendrix

A song I wrote based on the ongoing saga of the birds underneath my lilac bush. There's one big fat oriole under there who used to shriek and fight any other bird that would try to get to his patch of dirt. But there's always someone out there bigger and tougher.

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.
