1.Shangri (Taglieri John) sözleri

Taglieri John tarafından albümünde söylenen Shangri adlı şarkının sözleri.

(J. Taglieri)
Sometimes things
Can happen to make you change your mind
From what you always thought you'd believe in
Don't know why
These dreams we have as children fade away
Must be this crazy world we live in
So tell me darlin'
Did you ever think that we would be the ones
To finally see what dreams are made of
Holding hands, understand
We are here in our little Shangri-La
No more tears, no more fears
Just you and me in our little Shangri-La
Life is hard
And no one teaches how to play he game
You fend for yourself, it's sink or swim
But you get one chance
To find the one who will help you find your way
To teach you all you need to win
So tell me darling
Did you ever dream you'd teach me everything
And show me what my dreams are made of
Holding hands, understand
We are here in our little Shangri-La
No more tears, no more fears
Just you and me in our little Shangri-La
Baby, we can find it
Hidden in our souls
All the hidden treasures never told
Holding hands, understand
We are here in our little Shangri-La
No more tears, no more fears
Just you and me in our little Shangri-La

2.Shangri (Electric Light Orchestra) sözleri

Electric Light Orchestra tarafından albümünde söylenen Shangri adlı şarkının sözleri.

Sitting here, waiting for,
Someone calling at my door,
Too bad,
I’m getting out of love.

What’s the use of changing things,
Wonder what tomorrow brings,
Who knows,
I’m getting out of love.

Chorus
My shangri-la has gone away,
Faded like the beatles on hey jude
She seemed to drift out on the rain
That came in somewhere softly from the blue

Clouds roll by and hide the sun,
Raindrops fall on everyone,
So sad,
I’m getting out of love.

Chorus -- repeat

Chorus -- repeat

3.Shangri (Don Henley) sözleri

Don Henley tarafından albümünde söylenen Shangri adlı şarkının sözleri.

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-la
This ain’t no shangri-la
Nobody knows no shangri-la

4.Shangri (Kinks) sözleri

Kinks tarafından albümünde söylenen Shangri adlı şarkının sözleri.

Now that you’ve found your paradise
This is your kingdom to command
You can go outside and polish your car
Or sit by the fire in your shangri-la
Here is your reward for working so hard
Gone are the lavatories in the back yard
Gone are the days when you dreamed of that car
You just want to sit in your shangri-la

Put on your slippers and sit by the fire
You’ve reached your top and you just can’t get any higher
You’re in your place and you know where you are
In your shangri-la
Sit back in your old rocking chair
You need not worry, you need not care
You can’t go anywhere
Shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la

The little man who gets the train
Got a mortgage hanging over his head
But he’s too scared to complain
’cos he’s conditioned that way
Time goes by and he pays off his debts
Got a tv set and a radio
For seven shillings a week
Shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la

And all the houses in the street have got a name
’cos all the houses in the street they look the same
Same chimney pots, same little cars, same window panes
The neighbors call to tell you things that you should know
They say their lines, they drink their tea, and then they go
They tell your business in another shangri-la
The gas bills and the water rates, and payments on the car
Too scared to think about how insecure you are
Life ain’t so happy in your little shangri-la
Shangri-la, shangri-la la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Put on your slippers and sit by the fire
You’ve reached your top and you just can’t get any higher
You’re in your place and you know where you are
In your shangri-la
Sit back in your old rocking chair
You need not worry, you need not care
You can’t go anywhere
Shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la, shangri-la
