(Puerta - Pack)

When you're in the shape I'm in
It's tellin' me somethin'
It's givin' me warning
It's gotta be rough, man
When you're in the shape I'm in
From all of your lies

You left me cryin';
Didn't know where I could turn to
You said you loved me
And you turned your back on me, girl
And I believed in all your lies
You took my heart and soul
And now the pain won't go

When you're in the shape I'm in
It's tellin' me somethin'
It's givin' me warning
It's gotta be rough, man
When you're in the shape I'm in
From all of your lies

Was I the one man
That you said you'd always stand by
But when the hard times came
You left without a goodbye
Was I a fool to let you go?
How can I feel alive
When I just feel like dyin'

Can't you see I'm a man who's cryin'?
You took my heart and soul
And now the pain won't go no

Shape I'm in
From all of your lies

Was I a fool to let you go?
How can I feel alive
When I just feel like dyin'

Shape I'm In

When you're in the shape I'm in From all of your lies

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.
