Lyrics

it's the end of a perfect day

for surfer boys and girls

the sun's dropping down in the bay

and falling off the world

there's a diamond in the sky

our evening star

in our shangri-la

get that fire burning strong

right here and right now

it's here and then it's gone

there's no secret, anyhow

we may never love again

to the music of guitars

in our shangri-la

tonight your beauty burns

into my memory

the wheel of heaven turns

above us endlessly

this is all the heaven we've got

right here where we are

in our shangri-la

this is all the heaven we've got

right here where we are

in our shangri-la
