Oh Shangri La
Hole in my head can't sleep for dreamingI'll be checking out some dayNo shades of red no room for breathingNo regrets no hours awayThis jukebox won't play no Sinatra it justCurses all night longAnd there's no easy spoken mantra toPut me back where I belongLate night parade a dreamer's nightmareAnd the boys are closing inShe's got no good reason to be thereBut her choices all seem slimWell chaos reigns in this old thumb screwBaffled lines of hers and hisOh Shangri La why can't I find youAnd your faded promises?I seen it in your eyes, a wanted man's disguiseAnd a million bad highsThe lights had all gone red,The 4am dreadAnd then you made sense like the starThat you are oh Shangri LaOne vicious love after another pointless noiseSongtexteAnd shotgun shoesWould someone please show me someOther place to hang these dead sun bluesThe landlord won't place me an order heDon't think that I should sleepHis wife just sings me to the borderBut I can't think of her as cheapI seen it in your eyes, a wanted man's disguiseAnd a million bad highsThe lights had all gone red,The 4am dreadAnd then you made sense like the starThat you are oh Shangri La
