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

Be Your Woman (free) 03:51
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

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

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

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

Swanee River 04:08
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
