(Jeff Lynne and John Farrar)
A place where nobody dared to go
The love that we came to know
They call it, "Xanadu"
[The days you cried can't be denied]
And now, open your eyes and see
What we have made is real
We are in "Xanadu"
[The dream in you, they offer you]
A million lights are dancing
And there you are a shooting star
An everlasting world
And you're here with me eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu
[Now we are here] in Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu
[Now we are here] in Xanadu
Xanadu, your neon lights will shine
For you, Xanadu
The love;
The echoes of long ago you needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu
[Now everyday, you'll dream away]
The dream that came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears
It came to Xanadu
[The dreamer in you will make it happen for you]
A million lights are dancing
And there you are a shooting star
An everlasting world
And you're here with me eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu
[Now we are here] in Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu
[Now we are here] in Xanadu
Now that I'm here; now that you're near
In Xanadu
Now that I'm here; now that you're near
In Xanadu
Fool, whatever you do you're reminded
Fool, wherever you go you're reminded
I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh, I won't be needin' any love for a while
I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh, I won't be needin' any love for a while
Fool, fool, fool
Fool, fool, fool
Fool, wherever you go you're a loser
Such a fool, I want you to know you're a loser
I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh, I won't be needin' any love for a while
I'm really down on love, so save all your smiles
Ooh, I won't be needin' any love for a while
Fool, Fool
I'm sure I should pass a law laid down
Declare you will never wear your face in a frown
Obey or be on your way, get on the first stage out of this town
There's me and my deputies, so shake it down and me
If you don't grin, we will take you in
So spread some sunshine around
Obey or be on your way, get on the first stage out of this town
Xanadu, Xanadu
In Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu
In Xanadu
Now that I'm here, now that you're near in Xanadu
Now that I'm here, now that you're near in Xanadu
Xanadu
