Still No Shangri-La

Wright Michelle

You brought your pictures of paradise and they looked so real to me 
You had the tickets in your right hand and I started to believe 
That heaven wasn't so far away and I thought we did get in 
We laughed and we played like summer days 
But something was missing

How the sun did shine 
And the fire burned bright behind our hungry eyes 
Our fantasy lives 
And in our innocent hearts 
But after all, still no Shangri-la

I remember your gentle kiss and the music in your hands 
I remember the golden glow on the shores of Canaan Land 
Baby we flew way so high we could hear the angels sing 
Even now after it all came down 
I still wouldn't change a thing

How the sun did shine 
And the fire burned bright behind our hungry eyes 
Our fantasy lives 
And in our innocent hearts 
But after all, still no Shangri-la

Sometimes I miss you at night, sometimes I suddenly cry 
Sometimes I think it's all right, sometimes I still wonder why 
We tried with all of our might, still we had to say good-bye

How the sun did shine 
And the fire burned bright behind our hungry eyes 
Our fantasy lives 
And in our innocent hearts 
But after all, still no Shangri-la 

Almost felt like it 
Shangri-la 
Still miss you at night 
But it's gonna be all right 
Miss you baby 
Still no Shangri-la
