Paradise is close at hand

Shangri-la the promised land

Seventh heaven on demand

Quite unusual nowadays

Virgin vistas, undefiled

Minds and bodies running wild

In the man behold the child

On the trail we blaze

The trail we blaze

Is a road uncharted

Through terra incognita to a golden shrine

No place for the traveler

To be faint-hearted

We are part of the sumptuous grand design

Hold extra 2 beats b g d g d b g
