Every day's a new day
That's what I've been told
Try to hold your head high
The world runs hot and coldIt's hard to follow footprints
In the shifting sands
Another thirsty rider
Behind the caravanYou had no idea
Just what was waiting out there
You never thought you'd carry the weight of the world
On your pretty blond hairThis ain't no Shangri-La
To you, no Shangri-La
This ain't no Shangri-La
Nobody knows no Shangri-LaHey, 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 farThis ain't no Shangri-La
To you, no Shangri-La
This ain't no Shangri-La
Nobody knows no Shangri-LaNo one can be sad
What we all must outrun
Who's gonna carry the weight of the world
Unitl we learn to stop and do what must be doneThis ain't no Shangri-La
To you, no Shangri-La
This ain't no Shangri-La
Nobody knows no Shangri-LaShangri-La, Shangri-La
Shangri-La, Shangri-La
Shangri-La, Shangri-La
Shangri-La, Shangri-La
