I wanna feel you more than a touch that doesn’t linger
I want more than the pretense of understanding
Then you turn around and roll your eyes at me
When I’m just trying to talk to you
Just trying to talk to you

I wanna live in Shangri La
I wanna live in Shangri La
I wanna live in Shangri La - Shangri La

I want more than this house of pent-up people that come and go
I want more place where everybody’s nice and then - nothing
I want more than this house filled with noise from the TV that’s on all the time
Broadcasting sport scores and noise and dysfunctional people
Doing dysfunctional things to each other

I wanna live in Shangri La
I wanna live in Shangri La
I wanna live in Shangri La - Shangri La

We went to the city on a holiday
Where the ocean shines
Like an emerald
And the cliffs drop
And the seals play
And the rich shop

Then you led me through
The pretty hotel
Where the rich people stayed
You said Isn’t it wonderful
All the tile was inlaid

Then everybody walked and
Nobody talked
And everybody shopped and
Nobody talked
And everybody gawked and
Everybody ate their ice cream
You said Maybe one day
We could live right here
In this jewel of the nation
I said Maybe one day
I would chuck this all
Just for a little conversation

I wanna live in Shangri La
I wanna live in Shangri La
I wanna live in Shangri La - Shangri La
