Like a rose out of desert sand
Sweet mirage from a mystic land
Long hair, black as the darkest night
Magic woman, you shine a light
And I know, you could be fantasy
And I know, solid reality
Don‘t go, what if I live a lie
Don‘t go, I‘ll take the risk and try
I‘m living up
Cuz you gave me a reason
Live a life in a land of the free
You took my hand and I knew
You would show me the way
To Shangri-La
Midnight oil, still you burn for me
Sweet perfume, haze comes easily
Beating drums, dancing to the sound
Guide me home to your sacred ground
And I know, you could be fantasy
And I know, solid reality
Don‘t go, temptation can‘t be wrong
Don‘t go, this is where I belong
I‘m living up
Cuz you gave me a reason
Live a life in a land of the free
You took my hand and I knew
You would show me the way
To Shangri-La
