Track Name: One More Time
Don’t quite know when it started
All this feeling empty-hearted
Perhaps it was a month ago today
The first time I heard you say

Maybe we shouldn’t be together
Maybe we could each do better
The truth is I’m just tired of lying
And your just tired of crying

I’ll go and find a brand new reason
To keep on moving along like time and tide
Pick me up and lay me down again
One More time

-------

I think I’ll just get into the car
Drive until I’ve gone too far
Maybe there I’ll finally find what’s real
Something I can feel

I’ll get a job and stay a while
Never again walk a lonely mile
Find a brand new bunch of friends
And do it all over again

I’ll even weather bitter seasons
I won’t keep moving along like tide and time
Pick me up and lay me down again

I’ll go and find a brand new reason
To keep on moving along like time and tide
Pick me up and lay me down again
One More time
Track Name: Be Your Woman
Be your woman, will you be my man
I’ll be your woman won’t you be my man
Silver dollar right there in your hand
Be your woman won’t you be my man

Stick to the promise, boy, that you made me
Stick to the promise, boy, that you made me
Not gonna marry no one till I go free
Stick to the promise, boy, that you made me

Be your woman, be my man
I’ll be your woman, be my man
Track Name: Wait For The Sun
Don’t fade away
Don’t turn out the light of the day
When even the shadows are claimed by the dark

I won’t let you down
I won’t let them turn you around
Just hold on for now
The dawn isn’t far away
So just keep your stay

And wait for the sun
Wait for the sun

Tracks in the sand
And cracks in the clay where you stand
The wind sweeps away all that was lost and found
So go underground
And wait for the sun
Wait for the sun
Wait for the sun


Wait, wait for the sun
Wait, wait for the sun
Wait, wait for the sun
Wait, wait for the sun
Track Name: Brotherly Love
Sometimes water is thick as blood
You know the hawk hunt the dove
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
Don’t tell me about brotherly love

I’m sure you know the old fable
About Cain and little Abel
Very first brothers there ever was
Don’t tell me about brotherly love

Rich man’s riding on the poor man
Strong man takes what he wants
Wheel keep turning round and round
Walls go up, walls come down

We set the bar too low
Just coasting with the flow
Gotta did a little deeper to rise above
Aim a little higher than brotherly love
Track Name: When I Remember To Forget
I must remember to forget you
To my heart I must be kind
And I’m remembering to forget
Nearly all my lonely time
And though I make an effort
And try to do it right
When I remember to forget you
You’re always on my mind

You ask me why it is I cry
And what makes me so sad
But I have tried to see the light
Still, in the clouds I stand
You tell me not to worry
It all will ease with time
But when I remember to forget
You’re always on my mind

You can’t deny the irony
Of what this task requires
A scholar knows to study hard
Takes a fevered mind

And so long I’ve run a fever
A condition called “apart”
My stable mind is running wild
When it listens to my heart
I know this isn’t rational
And this is what I fight

Coz when I remember to forget
When I remember to forget you
When I remember to forget
You’re always on my mind
Track Name: Swanee River
Way down upon the Swanee River
Far, far away
That's where my heart is yearning ever
Home where the old folks stay

Up and down the whole creation
Everywhere I roam

Oh Lord, how my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home

Up and down the whole creation
Sadly I roam

Oh Lord, how my heart grows weary
Far from the old folks at home
Far from the old folks at home
Far from the old folks at home
