Shangri La Lyrics

Every day's a new day

That's what I've been told

Try to hold your head high

The world runs hot and cold

It's hard to follow footprints

in the shifting sand

Another thirsty rider

Behind the caravan

You had no idea

just what was waiting out there

You never thought you'd carry the weight

of the world

On your pretty blond hair

This ain't no Shangri-La

To you, no Shangri-La

This ain't no Shangri-La

Nobody knows no Shangri-La

Hey! There's a whole lotta people

wonderin' who you are

They think you walk without a care in the world

But they've been wrong so far

This ain't no Shangri-La

To you, no Shangri-LaHenley Don - Shangri La - http://motolyrics.com/henley-don/shangri-la-lyrics.html

This ain't no Shangri-La

Nobody knows no Shangri-La

No one can decide

What we all must outrun

Who's gonna carry the weight of the world

Until we learn to stop

and do what must be done?

This ain't no Shangri-La

To you, no Shangri-La

This ain't no Shangri-La

Nobody Knows no Shangri-La
