Back To Vrindavan - Shelter

Back to a place I wish I never left

Back to a place ‘cuz I’m feeling so bereft today

Where saints and sages walk right down the street

As the kick the dust up with their lotus feet

The monkeys chase the peacocks all around

While a sadhu offers praying lying face flat on the ground

A place where I can go but I can’t cheat

Where everybody knows what’s underneath

Cuz I’ve been with that inside of me

And I’m sitting here so desperately

Cuz I’ve been living without giving back and losing touch with what’s inside of

me

And the fact is I want to go back

A resting place to finally belong

A land where every step’s a dance and each word’s a song

These costumes I wear get heavier day by day

Want to strip if off and throw it all away

Entangled in a world my head spins

Can’t remember how I dropped right in anymore

Temporary rooms are where I dwell

Looking for that home from where I fell
