My heart it skips a beat when I behold
The light that's shining through your eyes of gold
From heavenly blood you seem to spring
From heavenly waters you can drink

I'll meet you on the day that never ends
I'll greet you in the way that heaven meant
You lay me down gently on the leaves
You cover me over in my sleep

I never did say that I wish I could
I never could pray cos it's just no good
I hope you don't break my heart of stone
I don't wanna scream out loud wake up on my own

And as I close my eyes
And the sky turns red
I realise just what you are
You're an idler's dream and you're singing shangri-la
shangri-la
shangri-la
shangri-la
