I close my eyes
And dream of a place I used to go
A perfect world
Only as a child I know

Shaky walls and lookout holes
A dirty floor, our own lil hideaway
Yeah, I dream away
So far away

Take me there
Back to Shangrila
And I'll meet you there
Warm in Shangrila

Sometimes I hear
All the voices from those single years
Sometimes I see
Ever since there used to be

Sometimes it hurts so bad
I can taste the tears of the memories
Yeah, I dream away
So far away

Take me there
Back to Shangrila
And I'll meet you there
Warm in Shangrila
All the times when I'm alone
I think of all that's come and gone
Oh, and how I miss the days

Through all the laughter and the tears
That was shed through all the years
In my hands they slip away
