Sri-Lanka you are my Shangri-La Hidden in the sun Recalling the land of my roots When my life began. Sri-Lanka you are my Shangri-La From this moment on Take me away in dreams to the Place I've been born Recall all my memories That nearly have been gone I say hey This place I wanna stay Me and my baby I'm sure I don't mean maybe today. I say oh Wish all my old friens would know I'm almost in heaven Sri-Lanka so don't let me go oh no. Sri-Lanka you are my Shangri-La A golden memory. Paradise regained in the sun Where I've found my key Sri-Lanka I'll spek your sinala From this moment on and let me keep Pretending you're the isle where I've been born Secret paradise For dreamers like me on the run.
