(Puerta - Pack - Drummond - Lewis***)

Ain't nobody out there, just me and you
It's one on one, just we two
I got somethin' like a heartbeat
Only you control
And I'm up as far as I can bear to go

This is the road so welcome home
Where nothing real abounds
There is no reason we must wait
Let's take these pleasures now

Now...

Ain't nobody out there gonna disagree
We're all hiding something under lock 'n' key
You don't like it but you just can't stop
(But) keep your screws on tight
We'll undo all that's been done to you tonight

This is the place it all begins
There's no time to back down
There is no reason to pretend
Just take these pleasures now

Now...

STILL NOT SATISFIED

(Drummond - Pack - Puerta)

Well, I'm livin' but I still ain't satisfied
I'm runnin' but I don't know where to hide
There have been lovers, places I've known
Strangers I've turned to when I've been alone
And I'm leavin' 'cause I'm still not satisfied
Yeah, I'm bleedin' and I don't know where to hide

There have been places I'd like to have seen
Dreams that have never come true
But in this lifetime there's no in between
In between living with you

I've been shot down but still I stand to fight
I know what's wrong but I don't know what's right
'Cause all of your money, sweet talk and gold
Can't buy a heart back that's already sold
And I'm leaving 'cause I still ain't satisfied
Yeah, I'm bleedin' and I don't know where to hide

I have no reason to go back again
Living but not getting through
'Cause in this lifetime there's no in between
In between living with you

Ain't found nothing to rely on
No place I feel at home
Show me something to get by on
Seems I've waited so long
I don't hear what you say anymore

Well, I'm runnin'...

KID NO MORE

( Pack - Puerta )

Well, it's beginning to take hold
That I'm gettin' too old to act the fuckin' fool that I feel Maybe I'm just too lazy
To stop actin' crazy and past the point of playin' for real

But oh, it's makin' me
Old man, it's sure takin' its toll

Can't put on the brakes yet
Got the pedal to the floor
But man you ain't a kid you ain't a kid, no more

Well now I'm pushin' thirty but my legs are sturdy
And ready to run like hell
But I'd rather be racin' 'round
While she's busy face down In my 450 S.E.L.

But whoa, little lady don't ask for my I.D.
Don't wanna know, no I don't

Gettin' all the lovin' now I never had before
But kid you ain't a kid you ain't a kid, no more

Yeah, when you feel this way
Well you get your kicks and lovin' nearly every day
Yeah, when he feels this way
Then he knows what he wants and he takes what he gets And he...

I need a shot like a trigger from a potion in a jigger
To keep my motor razor clean
I might start actin' funny but don't worry honey
Just lay back and service my machine
I may be older but the grape gets sweeter
The longer that it's on the vine

You got no right in what you're thinkin'
After doin' what you did
Kid you ain't a kid you ain't a kid, no more

Repeat

FEELIN' ALIVE AGAIN

(Pack)

When I can't count on no one else and nothin' seems true Then I begin to doubt mvself and I come to you
You've cried with my disappointments
And laughed at my lies
Showed me the way to live again and I realize
I realize

That I'm feelin' alive again
Feelin' like a real man
Feelin' alive again
Feelin' like a real man

Babe, tell me what you do
To make every single dream come true
You give it all and now I'm givin' it back to you

Wherever we may choose to live the rest of our lives
If this is the best that we can give you know it's all right There may be expectations that we hold inside
As long as we live up to this love we'll be all right

'Cause I'm feelin' alive again
Feelin' like a real man
Feelin' alive again
Feelin' like a real man

You know that I do feel about you
You know that I do feel about you

Maybe it's all behind us now, we're not so far
To find everything we need somehow right where we are There are no hesitations, only the way
To live inside your love again
And here I will stay
Here I will stay

'Cause I'm feelin' alive again
Feelin' like a real man
Feelin' alive again
Feelin' like a real man

HOW CAN YOU LOVE ME

(Pack - Puerta)

Babe, it took a long, long time to get it out this way
Now, that the hurtin's over all I've got to say
(Is) that I know
Sure as I am living
It takes more than forgiving
'Cause it ain't been easy
I know you did your best to please me

How can you love me,
After all the years we've tried
After all the tears you've cried
After our love has died

Babe, I've seen some pretty faces everywhere I go
I say now
Maybe I ain't the same person that you used to know
But I know
In my heart I'm livin'
For the love you've given
And the foolish thing about it
Is that I thought I'd live without it

How can you love me
When you know I've been with someone else
And I ain't too happy with myself
But I keep on comin' back around

Ooh, sometimes it feels like I'm gone forever
(I'm gone forever)
Ooh, it gets so hard to wait
(It gets hard to wait)
Ooh, we're far away and it ain't gettin' better
Well, I know that somethin' is surely wrong
When I feel this way, well I can't go on and on

FOOL LIKE ME

(Puerta)

Have mercy on a fool like me
My eyes were open but I just couldn't see
The way the world works without honesty
Honestly, I was blind

When all my heroes have been laid to rest
And all my idols I have come to possess
And I'm still looking for some true happiness in my heart

Nothing here is certain
We chase a shadow of our own dream's design
And wonder why it takes so long
And wonder just where we went wrong
We hold a candle in the wind to light our way

Go lightly in your judgement please
I didn't know the world was filled with such greed
I'm only asking let your heart intercede
And I know they still exist
They say you learn something new every day
I want to learn to forget all this dismay
At finding out the way that some folks play
Only they's gonna win ...

Nothing here is sacred
The golden calf we worshipped has fallen from its shrine And left us standing here stranded
Our only hope's to abandon
These foolish dreams that we've pursued for far too long

Have mercy, have mercy ...

ICE AGE

(Drummond - Pack - Puerta - Bernstein****)

Home life, seems you're gettin'
Mad 'n' nothin's gettin' done
Old ties, that held you back
Have got you on the run
It's do or die, it's time to fly

Tearin' up all the old news
Put down the trash we used to take
Now, we'll leave it for the next
Fool to go, hope you know, it was almost real

Don't need no one
'Cause I got my own
I don't need nothin' at all
Nothin's gonna change the world
No handouts from your kind

Oh my, it's time we found a way to
Turn our heads around
No time, before they put our bodies underground
All right, okay, we're gonna pay

Blown-out, my brains are blistered
No doubt, it's been two-fisted fate
Now I'm border-linin' straight from this show
To some hole where we'll lay real low...

Make my own world
I'm on my own and I don't need that world at all
Runnin' from an angry crowd
No escape from your kind

Ice age, the wind is chilly
And the sun is almost gone
Mad race, is growin' cold and your life's gettin' on
No time to stop, your number's up

Make my own world
I'm on my own and I don't need that world at all
Runnin' from an angry crowd
No escape from your kind


ENDINGS....

(Pack)

The season of life is here
And the reason to live is clear
We've waited 'till who knows when
For the time to begin again
It's more than the change of time
It's something that's in all our minds
That no matter where or when
For endings are only
Places where all things begin

And the end is near
Of things we have grown to fear
We worry and reason why
With the times that change our lives
But more than the changing time
Is the image in all our minds
Of where it should be or when
For endings are always
Places where all things begin

Oh, look at the sun
On every stage, in everyone
Ah, stand in the light
As we get on, we will put up a fight

(Places where) all things begin...
