Lyrics
Came to this place, my love and I, to live the life, to live and breathe among the trees. We built our home beneath the sky, and with our feet upon the ground, we planted seeds. And now our children run, they fly, feel the sun, feel the rain, feel the breeze. This is where we live. No coal mine. Some say that Shangri-la is just a state of mind. Everywhere are battles to be won. Some say confusion is the state of humankind. We only have ourselves to overcome. But when I hear the news, I can't believe my ears... Come to this place and look around, take it in, take the air beside the sea. And with our feet upon the ground, feel the sun, feel the rain, feel the breeze. This is where we live. No coal mine.
