Doc, if you let me I'll read you the words Of Hilton on a place that might sound absurd But page after page he has kept me engaged With his fine narration, oh Shangri-la is nowhere near It does not exist here It's all in your head Day in and day out I wonder if maybe I have been there Once in my life, Doc, a moment in time The two worlds eclipsed and the stars aligned Music would play as I'd get swept away In those eyes so blue, so true But then I let it slip away A chance at a good life It's all in your mind Day in and day out Wonder if maybe I'd be different Man makes the myth Just to mix up the menace of life Think of all I've missed Thanks to crippling expectations I knew it was real Still I walked out the door I know Shangri-la is somewhere near I've seen it, I've been there (Manifestation of...) Day in and day out Deep inside I still hear the Music, sweetly, softly, sweeping
