1. _ Life Beyond L.a.
(pack - drummond)
Sometimes i think about the only way
That i'll ever see life beyond l.a. is dying
I sit in the corner of a hotel room
With a room service menu and i'm looking at the moon,
I'm crying
I'm out here waiting, praying, trying to keep from sayin'
That i don't miss you, though i do
You've got me shaking, praying, trying to keep from sayin'
That i don't miss you, though i do,
You know i do...
Livin' out here you soon come to know
That it ain't how good you are as much as who you know and how you fake it
Working this dive it's a matter of time
'cause i'm a good lead player got a way with a line
And i can make it
And when the day breaks dawn
Something is in my room
When all my faith is gone
Something begets my gloom
I'm out here waiting, praying, trying to keep from sayin'
That i don't miss you, though i do
You've got me shaking, playing, trying to keep from sayin'
That i don't miss you, though i do
Well, you know i do.
Yes.i do
Sometimes i think about the only time
That i'll ever be happy in my own mind is dying...

2. _ How Much I Feel
(pack)
I don't know how this whole business started
Of you thinkin' that i had been untrue
But if you think that we'd be better parted
It's gonna hurt me but i'll break away from you
Well, just give me the sign and i will be gone, yeahh
That's how much i feel
Feel for you, baby
How much i need i need your touch
How much i live i live for your loving
That's how much, that's how much
That's how much, that's how much
I sleep alone, and late at night i'm dreamin'
Of the togetherness that seems to be leavin' me
I'd give it all and then i'd give some more
If you would only love me like you had before
Take hold of my hand and all will be forgiven
That's how much i feel
Feel for you, baby
How much i need i need your touch
How much i live i live for your loving
Well that's how much, that's how much
That's how much, that's how much
So you try
Try to stay in the middle
And then you cry
Well you cry just a little
Then you both realize
Just how foolish you've been
And you try to make amends
But you're better off as friends
'cause that's how much, that's how much
That's how much, that's how much
How's your life been goin' on
I've got a wife now
Years we've been goin' strong
There's just something that i've got to say
Sometimes when we make love
I still can see your face
Just try to recall
When we were as one
That's how much i feel
Feel for you, baby
How much i need
I need your touch
How much i live
I live for your loving
That's how much

3. _ Angola
(puerta-pack)
I was living in angola,
Reading in the paper
'bout the new depression
Got the states upset
Still, i just can't see
How only one tv
And two slightly used cars
Causes such regrets
In this country such as ours,
If we had these things,
We would either be european
Or descend from kings
Oh! sometimes, you know,
I hunger for more than food,
For more than the shelter
From the cold monsoons
I'd like swimmin' pools
And refrigerated air
And an extra room to spare
(no more ten to a room),
And a thinking color set
With a close-up zoom
But in this country such as ours,
If we had these things,
We'd be a u.n. delegation
Or a visiting queen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And you remember well
The day when old wall street fell
And do you fear it again?
Still there is one major difference
In just how we see some things
What you call poor we call prosperity
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh! sometimes, you know,
I hunger for more than food,
For more than the shelter
From the cold monsoons
I'd like swimmin' pools
And refrigerated air
And an extra room to spare
(no more ten to a room),
And a thinking color set
With a close-up zoom
But in this country such as ours,
If we had these things,
We'd be a u.n. delegation
Or a visiting queen
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh living in angola ...

4. _ Ready For Camarillo
(puerta)
I'm 'bout ready for camarillo
My head is goin' fast
I'm like some ship out on the ragin' sea
That's losin' its mainmast
Can't find my direction
My thoughts are so confused
My problem's that there is no easy way
To heal the soul that's been abused
Sought to find the diff'rence
Between ghosts and reality
But who can tell me what's my name,
I mean, what is really me?
In my dreams, it seems so simple,
Such an easy way to be
I'm gonna lose myself in someone else
Just to find that way to me,
Find that way to me
Yeah, in my dreams, it seems so simple,
Such an easy way to be
I'm gonna lose myself in someone else
Just to find that way to me,
Find that way to me
Lord just about ready
Yeah, just about ready
Can you hear me now
I'm ready i'm about ready
Huh i'm yours

5. _ Heart To Heart
(puerta-pack)
Heart to heart
Soul to soul
Feeling lost
Everywhere i go
Love to love
Or hold to hold
Choose your cost
Be it pain or be it gold
Ain't there nothin' in this world you can count on?
Ain't there nothin' in this world to believe?
Save a gypsy's song when she's singin'
With a violin sweet?
Heart to heart
Soul to soul
Feeling lost
Everywhere i go
If only, my love,
You would try, love,
You could reach me
Long enough to teach me
All in time,love,
Will we find love
But it taunts me
You don't seem to want me
Why does your love haunt me
Everywhere i go?
Heart to heart
Soul to soul
Feeling lost
Everywhere i go,
Everywhere i go

6. _ Art Beware
(puerta)
Art beware. its all been done
There's nothing new under the sun
Yeah
What a waste of my time
So take heed of all new schemes
Just variations on old themes
Yeah
How could i be so blind?
It's sad when you've got it down to a pat thing
Sad thing is all you'll have
It's sad when you've got it down to some sure thing
Sure thing but it's old hat
Art beware. it's all been done
There's nothing new under the sun
(critic's chorus):
"haven't we heard your song
Yeah somewhere else before, son?
That was nice, good try son, but...
" what a waste of my time"

7. _ Apothecary
(puerta-pack)
You come alive at quarter to three
You make haste for a taste
In the parking lot of misery
So down it goes, and up goes your need
So you're fine for the time.
But you're on the line, not in between
What can this stuff do to me?
Apothecary, some more of the same today
Fills that need
You're late again for chemistry class
You were up in the lab
With your chemical head in a flask
The truth is though, your mind is a mess
You've just taken a dose
Now you're comatose in pandora's chest
How could i do this to me?
Apothecary, oh please, where's the antidote?
For me
Looking for ways you can let it out
Sleep in the days, for tonight you'll roam about
Pull all the stops; you begin to shout
Life's a big dream and you sleep
'till you come out
Come out
Fill my need,
Apothecary
Fill my need,
Apothecary

8. _ If Heaven Could Find Me
(drummond)
If heaven could find me somebody
Someone to hold me when i sleep
If heaven could find me somebody
Someone to show me what i need
I need someone to love me
I need someone to care
Watching each day pass so slowly
Gets to me more than i can bear
I've been waiting here for so long
You're not even near
Yeah, yeah...
You shattered my illusions
When you left me
Had me down crawling on my knees,
Hoping each day you'd come and find me;
Hoping you'd see my misery
I need someone to love me
I need someone to care
Watching each day pass so slowly
Gettin' me more than i can bear
I've been waiting here for so long
You're not even near
You're not even near
If heaven could find me somebody
Someone to hold me when i sleep
If heaven could find me somebody
Someone to show me what i need
I need someone to love me
I need someone to care
Watching each day pass so slowly
Gets to me more than i can bear
I've been waiting here for so long
And you're not even near
You're not even near
You're not even near

9. _ Not As You Were
(puerta-pack-drummond)
When you've had enough of trouble,
Had it up to here,
Your mind can't help but wandering
To some place gonna get you clear
You've had enough of misery
You've gotta find you somethin' new
And i'd be gone in a wink
If i thought i could think
Of some place gonna get me through
Tryin' to find some breathin' room,
A little peace from your case of blues,
It's hard to cut the ties that hold you,
Get the lead out of your shoes
You've had enough of misery
You've gotta find you some new clue
And i'd be gone in a wink
If i thought i could think
Of some place gonna get me through
Not as you were
You really don't need that
You tried it out
It just didn't work
Not as you were
Really don't need that
Not as you were, were...
Oh, if i had some relief
Get me out of the rain and the cold
Then, i'd be down on my knees
Giving thanks for the peace
All right
When you've had enough of trouble,
Had it up to here,
Your mind can't help but wandering
To some place gonna get you clear
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Not as you were
You really don't need that
You tried it out
It just didn't work
Not as you were
Really don't need that
Not as you were, were...
Not as you were
Were.....

10. _ Dancin' By Myself
(pack)
Whatever it is you need, better take what you can to feed it
In a world of hunger and greed lives a heart thats truly bleedin'
Now the question of me and you is just remainin' a mystery
I guess it just goes to prove that you never really did love me
So you might just ask your mama
If that's the way it should be
Well, you might just ask your conscience
If i left you or you left me
Well, you say that you want somebody
Who's gonna treat you like a queen
When you don't even have the time of day
For the things that mean a lot to me
I hoped that we'd piece it together
And put an end to the misery
But these things take forever,
And it never did occur to me
That you might go home to mama
And that's the way it'd be
Well, you might just ask your conscience
If i left you where you left me
You left me dancin' by myself dancin' by myself
And i can't find no one else
Can't find no one else
You left me dancin' by myself dancin' by myself
And i don't want no one else yeah dancin', dancin'
So you might just ask your mama
If that's the way it should be
You might just ask your conscience
If i left you where you left me
You left me dancin' by myself dancin' by myself
And i can't find no one else
Can't find no one else
You left me dancin' by myself dancin' by myself
And i don't want no one else dancin' , and i can't find no one, can't find no one else
