Great song. Sounds great. Great demo and production for the music and melody… When I read the lyrics, even without the music, the lines all read so smooth. The lines roll off the tongue easily. I like that about your lyrics… The verses have the great imagery. I can see you looking up to heaven to say thank you, I can see her in a dress, got some sexiness going in that third line smile ,but that line about that prayers fading in the air. That’s a great one. That prayer kind of dissipating like a smoke cloud or something. I can visualize that. Lol. Very cool line… Anyway, thanks for posting, and thanks for another lesson in songwriting!

I love the melodies and lyrics, and the beauty of the song is it’s simplicity. Thank you for sharing, the way you write, is the way to write. I tend to overtell my stories, but like you shared in your QT’s this song wasn’t overtold and sounds great because of it. Thanks again for sharing.

Talkin’ To God

Written by Brent Baxter

I threw Him thank You the night that we met
I knew He blessed the way you wore that dress
Even got you to call His name now and then
Now with you gone, it’s just me and Him... So I’m

CHORUS:
Talkin’, really talkin’
Tonight I’m talkin’, I'm talkin’ to God
The sight of you walkin’
Got my knees droppin’
With teardrops fallin’, there’s no blowing it off
Yeah, without you, girl, I’m lost
So I’m talkin’ to God

I don’t know if He’s listenin’ to my whiskey prayers
Don’t know if they’re fadin’ 10 feet up in the air
But I keep begging and making these deals
‘Cuz He's the one Man who can change how you feel... So I keep

CHORUS

Well, it's gonna take a miracle to bring you back
And the old me would’ve been to proud to ask... But I keep

CHORUS
