[Verse 1] Lonely pavements, shards of glass reflect the evening sky And I think of peach blossom Concrete tumors, competing greed and height And all I see are Himalayans [Pre-Chorus] I've heard about a place with trees Where springs run clean through valleys and peaks And the air can heal you as you breathe Not like the smoke that fills these streets I read about a place somewhere far You can't get there by car Where misty vales hide mystery trails I think they call it Shangri-La All I see are Himalayans (Boom) [Chorus] Paradise waits Only for the lonely The escapists and the brave Freedom is a place Let's run away, I know the way To somewhere far They call it Shangri-La (Boom) Now think of peach blossom 'N all I see are Himalayans Paradise waits Freedom is a place, now I think they call it Shangri-La [Verse 2] Where the proof machines and roofs block my view And I just think of lost horizons Drains engorged with filthy water Call my core and I make birdsongs out of sirens [Pre-Chorus] I've heard about a place with trees Where springs run clean through valleys and peaks And the air can heal you as you breathe Not like the smoke that fills these streets Yeah, I read about a place somewhere far You can't get there by car Where misty vales hide mystery trails I think they call it Shangri-La All I see are Himalayans (Boom) [Chorus] Paradise waits Only for the lonely The escapists and the brave Freedom is a place Let's run away, I know the way To somewhere far They call it Shangri-La (Boom) Now think of peach blossom All I see are Himalayans Paradise waits Freedom is a place, now I think they call it Shangri-La [Bridge] I'm trading grey for green I'm gonna throw it all away for my Utopian dream The holy grail of fairy tales calls to me And I've become my own queen I'm never going back, no way, don't wanna I'm never going back, I've found nirvana I'm never going back, no way, don't wanna I'm never going back [Pre-Chorus] All I see are Himalayans (Boom) [Chorus] Paradise waits Only for the lonely The escapists and the brave Freedom is a place Let's run away, I know the way To somewhere far They call it Shangri-La (Boom) Now think of peach blossom And all I see are Himalayans Paradise waits Freedom is a place, now I think they call it Shangri-La Now think of peach blossom And all I see are Himalayans Paradise waits Freedom is a place, now I think they call it Shangri-La (Boom)
