Hendrike's Ford Fiesta
Appeared on Purple Cadillacs
Words and music by David Munyon
This is a song I wrote one night in the kitchen of Sebastian Linke's home. It is a combination of thoughts about two ladies I know named "Hendrike". Both seem very powerful to me. One drives a Ford Fiesta, and I admire them both.
She was like a bowl of roses
She stood strong and feminine
Said she hich-hiked once to Paris
Just to see the river Seine
She was young and wouldn't say
All the plans she planned
She could have flown to India
She stopped in to say she was a fan
Chorus
Souls come and go
And love is never wasted
Gold looks like silver
If you shine a purple light
Tears fall like rain
If hurt is caused by anger
She is like god
And I'm still a stranger
My guitar has some scars
It's been good these years to me
Said she made the midnight stars
Still her eyes still burn in me
Words will say a lot of things
Said she judged my heart
Said I was a decent guy
She drove off in her car
Chorus
This song is for Hendrike.
