Trouble In Shangra-La

Stevie Nicks

I remember him, he was very young 
No one spoke like him, he was someone 
And I carried on, like I couldn't stop 
All of it for us baby 

And you, you got in my way 
Stood between me and my friends 
It was my sin, it was my shame 
You were unconscious to the pain I was in 

Chorus
I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La 
I run through the grass 
I run over the stones 
Down to the sea 
Show me the way back, honey 
I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La 
I run through the grass 
I run over the stones 
Show me the way back...to the sea 

With honor be it spoken 
To understand this light that we carry 
And let it light your way 
Of course, you know, I generally take it
Well I make accommodations for you 
And consider this 
You used to be my love 
I make excuses for you 

Chorus

You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby 
I know you can, I've seen you do it 
And it brings up the wind 
And it rises around you in pillars of color 

But the promise has been broken 
As you walk through the shadow of death 
You try to see no evil 
But you are heartbroken 
You say, dear God, make it stop! 

Before the dawn of separation 
Brings up the wind 
Rises around you 
I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La 
Pillars of color 
Trouble in Shangri-La 
I make accommodations for you 

I guess we don't believe 
That things could go that far 
We all believe in people... 
That we think believe in God 
Somewhere in the night... 
Someone feels the pain 
The ones who walk away 
Try to love again... 

Chorus

You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
Because you are so heartbroken
You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
Before the dawn of separation
You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
Show me the way back
