[Verse 1]
We face a lost horizon
The end of all we know
The dogma all pervasive flow
The haste and all the restraint
Riding for a fall
The shallowness has kept us small
[Refrain]
We're all in dire need
Of help to come
Back to affinity
To finally come undone
[Verse 2]
The powers of perception
Have often gone astray
A downright shame, the price to pay
A storm so punishing here
Will bring the about-turn
To go the distance and return
[Pre-Chorus]
We came from miles around
With hopes that nеver died
Closely guardеd secrets
In mystery they're attired
[Chorus]
The road to Shangri-La
The last realm of the soul is a mystery
The spell of Shangri-La
An Arcadian dream can be our treasury
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
The road to Shangri-La
The last realm of the soul is a mystery
The spell of Shangri-La
An Arcadian dream can be our treasury
[Outro]
(The road to Shangri-La)
Road to Shangri-La
The land behind the times is a mystery
Time is a mystery here (The peace of Shangri-La)
Shangri-La
(Is a mental gem of men without boundaries)
Shangri-La
