Texty: Manic Street Preachers. Idler's Dream.
My heart it skips a beat when I behold
The light that's shining through your eyes of gold
From heavenly blood you seem to spring
From heavenly waters you can drink
I'll meet you on a day that never ends
I'll greet you in a way that heaven meant
You lay me down gently on the leaves
You cover me over in my sleep
I never did say that I wish I could
I never could pray cos it's just no good
I hope you don't break my heart of stone
I don't wanna scream out loud
And wake up on my own
And as I close my eyes
And the sky turns red
I realise just what you are
You're an idlers dream
And you're singing Shangri la
Shangri la
Shangri la
Shangri la
The light that's shining through your eyes of gold
From heavenly blood you seem to spring
From heavenly waters you can drink
I'll meet you on a day that never ends
I'll greet you in a way that heaven meant
You lay me down gently on the leaves
You cover me over in my sleep
I never did say that I wish I could
I never could pray cos it's just no good
I hope you don't break my heart of stone
I don't wanna scream out loud
And wake up on my own
And as I close my eyes
And the sky turns red
I realise just what you are
You're an idlers dream
And you're singing Shangri la
Shangri la
Shangri la
Shangri la
