Yes, both tracks you mention ("Mind Complication" from ep. 1, "Teardrops" from 
ep. 2) are on the first CD.  In fact, the first CD has all the music (and then 
some) from the first two episodes.  The second CD (yes, there is a second one) 
has the music from the remaining three episodes, with only seconds to spare on 
the CD itself (over 73 minutes worth out of a possible 74).  

Of the two, I love the second one better...not to say that the first one was 
bad at all (I love that one as well ^_^).  Not only does it have more music, 
but the music on it is at times stirring, and at other times deeply moving.  
Also, it has Belldandy's "Song of Egg" (track 20) as well as a bonus image 
song sung by Keiichi's voice actor (Kikuchi Masami) at the end of the ep. 4 
section.

I'd have to say "Get both of these CDs!"

Well, if you can manage to get your hands on AnimEigo's release of the 
subtitled tapes or LDs, the liner notes will have both the romanized Japanese 
lyrics as well as English translations.  Seeing that you're from Australia 
(from your e-mail address), I understand that it might be difficult.  Do what 
you have to do to get them, though.  Ganbatte Kudasai!
