Ambrosia

Songwriter: Joe Puerta David Pack David Lewis Burleigh Drummond

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...

Ambrosia is a soft rock band from Los Angeles discovered in 1971 by Los Angeles Philharmonic conductor Zubin Mehta, who featured the group as part of an All-American Dream Concert (Pops concert). It took them another four years to get signed to a record contract.

Between 1975 and 1982, Ambrosia racked up five Grammy nominations, toured with Fleetwood Mac, Heart, and The Doobie Brothers, and scored five US top 40 hits including two top fives: “Biggest Part Of Me” and “How Much I Feel”.

The group split in 1982, but reunited in 1989 and has continued touring and releasing compilations of their old hits. In 2015, the group released a new single, “Hopes and Dreams”, which was featured in the Fox series The Sparrows.
