1. _ Let Me Go
You know i've got to leave here
If i can pull myself up to the door
You see i've tried my best to stay here
But i can't see you anymore
There's something i've just gotta tell ya
There's something keeps bringing me down, ya know
There's one thing more i've just gotta ask ya
Won't you please let me go?
If i'm to meet my master
If i'm to rule my fate
You know it couldn't come any faster, babe
But see i know it's not too late
Time has not been good for us
No time has not been kind
We've done all that we could for us
More time won't change my mind
And when my life is over
And i'm walking out in the rain
Let me lie down in the clover
And look up to the sun again
It's not that i did not love you
But something kept bringing me down, ya know
There's something that i've just gotta tell you
Once again now, baby
Let me go, let me go

2. _ Don't Tell Me No
Everytime i look into you it tears me up inside
Got a hunger for ya, woman, that just can't be denied
Don't tell me no, ain't my kind of answer
Don't tell me no, won't accept that answer
Makin' lots of money, honey, ain't what i call success
And i won't have what i need until you tell me yes
Don't tell me no - ain't my kind of answer
Don't tell me no - ain't no kind of answer
That's how much i want you
Like a good brew, like a fine wine
You improve with time and i want you, i love you
That's how much i need ya
You're a part of me, my philosophy, my reality
And i want you, that's how much i love you
Realize alibis ain't too wise
And they just won't cut this time
You're gonna give this boy a chance
'cause he's apt to blow your mind
Don't tell me no, ain't my kind of answer
Don't tell me no, won't accept that answer

3. _ Aubrey
And aubrey was her name,
A not so very ordinary girl or name.
But who's to blame?
For a love that wouldn't bloom
For the hearts that never played in tune.
Like a lovely melody that everyone can sing,
Take away the words that rhyme it doesn't mean a thing.
And aubrey was her name.
We triped the light and danced together to the moon,
But where was june.
No it never came around.
If it did it never made a sound,
Maybe i was absent or was listening to fast,
Catching all the words, but then the meaning going past,
But god i miss the girl,
And i'd go a thousand times around the world just to be
Closer to her than to me.
And aubrey was her name,
I never knew her, but i loved her just the same,
I loved her name.
Wish that i had found the way
And the reasons that would make her stay.
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest.
If i can't have the one i want, i'll do without the best.
But how i miss the girl
And i'd go a million times around the world just to say
She had been mine for a day.

4. _ Picture In Your Mind
Used to be my pleasure
When i'd wake up in the morning
Just to open my eyes and see you
Just to find you were lying there
But mornings now they seem to be an everyday affair
I'm just a picture in the memory of your mind
All i ever wanted
Every dream that i've ever cherished
Was to share in a kind of magic
That only lovers ever share
All you ever offered me
Was the moment then and there
I'm just a picture in your mind
I used to want you, oh how badly did i want you
I could not stand the hunger
I used to stay awake at night and think of nothing but you
And when i would awake to find you lying there beside me
It made me so damn happy
I couldn't satisfy my craziness for you
Now the spell is broken
And my dreams they've all turned to ashes
But i still have a love for living
By loving you i've only just begun
Love is never easy when it's given just by one
I'm just a picture in your mind
I used to want you, oh how badly did i want you
I could not stand the hunger
I used to lie awake at night and think of nothing but you
And when i would awake to find you lying there beside me
It made me so damn happy, babe
I couldn't satisfy my craziness for you
Found a few more answers
And i'm ready for tomorrow
But i still have to stop and wonder
If i've learned anything from what we've done
Love is never easy when it's given just by one
I'm just a picture in your mind
Picture in your mind

5. _ Make It By Yourself
You say you're down and out
And need some help to get you through each day
Well, here's a thought or two
I've used and like to pass them on your way
I found them lying there
The answers that you say you're looking for
Make what you will of them
And you can change the way it was before
You got to make it by yourself
You know you got to make it by yourself
I'll be your friend and i'll lend a helping hand
But you got to try and help yourself before i can
I hear you talk of all the happiness
And emptiness you've known
Well, let me reassure you
Never were you really all alone
They say in quiet desperation many people cannot see
They cannot see the simple truth
That's not the way it has to be
You got to find it for yourself
God helps the man who helps himself, amen
I am your friend and i'll lend a helping hand
But you gotta try and help yourself before i can
We got to help each other (each other)
You got to help your brother when you can
When you can
Now don't you think that i was preachin'
I'm just reachin' out for you
'cause that's the only way
That i know how to get the message through
Then you in turn and got to learn and teach it
To somebody who
Who felt the happiness and emptiness the same as you

6. _ Didn't Even Know Her Name
Should've kept on goin'
But the hurt was showing
When she looked at me that way
I had to stay
I knew i had to get to know her name
The town was weary
She was to marry
Someone planned years ago
Her eyes said no
I knew i had to get to know her name
And when i got her all alone
She told me through the tears
That she didn't really loved him
But he'd waited for so many years
She said she couldn't break his heart
She'd rather live with hers
And though i told her she should leave with me
She just could not believe with me
Should've kept on goin'
Better that than knowin'
That he made her his wife
He took her life
You know i didn't even know her name
You know i didn't even know her name

7. _ Fancy Dancer
Watchin' you move across the floor
You're fire up my mind can't take it no more
You're a fancy dancer
Makin' me blind so i can't see
You're a fancy dancer
And you ain't no good for me
You know you're comin' on strong
You're my favorite misery
You captured my soul - imprisoned my heart
You know you control whatever you start
You're fancy dancer
And it ain't too hard to see
You're fancy dancer
And you'll make a fool of me
I know it won't be for long
Until you dance a new song
But just for tonight won't you dance your dance for me
I'm not the first and i won't be the last
Don't want your future - just make the night last
C'mon fancy dancer
Make me blind so i can't see
You're a fancy dancer
And you ain't no good for me
Yeh, we both knew from the start
You'd try do dance with my heart
But just for tonight won't you dance your dance for me

8. _ Tecolote
Voodoo woman made a doll of me
And ever since then i been in misery
She said i did her pretty little daughter bad
And ever since then she's been driving me mad
Let me go, let me go, tecolote
Set me free, let me be, tecolote
Drums keep beatin' in my head all night
Poltergeists knockin' on my left and right
Pain and a fever running 103
Just because her daughter wants to marry me
Rather die, rather die than get married
Let me go, tell her no, tell her no
(solo)
You heard my story and you now know why
A strange old woman makes a grown man cry
And next time a pretty pretty turns your head
You better take a look at her mother instead
Let me go, let me go, tecolote
Let me be, set me free, let me free

9. _ Yours For Life
In this day and age where changes happen twice as fast
Sometimes i get wonderin' if anything will last
People changin' partners like they change their underwear
Maybe i'm old-fashioned but darlin' i still care.
Chorus
And i'm yours for life
Come and be my lifetime
Come and take the love i have for only one
Yes i'm yours for life
Come and share my lifetime
Share the world until our day is done.
Time that i first saw your face i loved you where you stood
In your eyes a kindness - told me you were good
And if the world could share your heart there'd never be a war
And darlin' if i tried and tried i could not love you more
Chorus
Sometime i pray that you will always be the way you always
Are to me
'cause if i lost you to the winds of change then i would cease to be.

10. _ The Guitar Man
Who draws the crowd and plays so loud,
Baby it's the guitar man.
Who's gonna steal the show, you know
Baby it's the guitar man,
He can make you love, he can make you cry
He will bring you down, then he'll get you high
Somethin' keeps him goin', miles and miles a day
To find another place to play.
Night after night who treats you right,
Baby it's the guitar man
Who's on the radio, you go listen
To the guitar man
Then he comes to town, and you see his face,
And you think you might like to take his place
Somethin' keeps him driftin' miles and miles away
Searchin' for the songs to play.
Then you listen to the music and you like to sing along,
You want to get the meaning out of each and ev'ry song
Then you find yourself a message and some words to call your own
And take them home.
He can make you love, he can get you high
He will bring you down, then he'll make you cry
Somethin' keeps him movin', but no one seems to know
What it is that makes him go.
Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice he's just got to find
Another place to play,
Anyway got to play, anyway got to play.

11. _ Sweet Surrender
Baby i'm through runnin' it's true
I'd be a fool to try to escape you
Maybe i'm beat but oh what a sweet surrender
You keep your rights, i'll take your nights
No one can lose when we turn the lights out
Tastin' defeat, lovin' that sweet surrender
I'm givin' up myself to you but i didn't really lose at all
I gave the only love i've known and it never hurt me to fall
Now that it's done, so glad you won
I know our lives have only begun now
No more retreat, only my sweet surrender

12. _ Welcome To The Music
Welcome to the music - welcome to the guitar man
Know you're gonna love it - gonna do the best we can
And to help us along - think we're gonna need us a band
Lately we been playin' - travelin' in the jets and cars
Smilin' at the people - lookin'at the rock and roll stars
I tell you carnegie hall's better than those honky tonk bars
Well if it's true what music can do
To soothe the savage beast like they say
Well just relax and lie on your backs
'cause beastly is the way we play
Now we're through talkin' - gonna speak another day
Love to play it funky - love to hear the symphony
And to star us along - larry's gonna play it in "c"
Don't touch that dial - won't you come and stay for awhile.
