Song about a kid in trouble.
Tom Buechi
I've been playing guitar in blues/rock bands both in Lancaster, NY and Southern California. These are some of the songs I've written recorded by myself over the years. I play all of the instruments on these recordings except where noted. Enjoy!
Just finished recording my debut album.

Lyrics
Not Without You
Words and Music by: Thomas A. Buechi
Mother, hold your son tonight, Hold him with all you might
‘Cause it’s not so good this time, He’s laid it all on the line
He needs your helping hand. To get him through
And it ain’t gonna get no better, Not with you
No, Not without you
Father, help your son if you can, He’s trying to hard to be a man
But it’s so hard to be like you, When all he seems to do is lose
Your son he needs your helping hand, To get him through
And it ain’t gonna get no better, Not with you
No, Not without you
Flyin’ on a cool, dry breeze. Lord, he just don’t know
They all say they love him, But it just don’t show, no, no
It just don’t show
Floatin’ on an amphetamine high, Tonight he’ll be all right
‘Cause the pain can’t touch him now,
The boy wants to change, but he just don’t know how
Without your helping hand, To get him through
And it ain’t gonna get no better, Not with you
No, Not without you
No, Not without you
Mother, hold your son tonight
