Song for a Guru

We wanted a guru of our own
Our own divinely incarnated one
But it was all too much to bear
All too much to bear

We longed to be ego-free
And reside in pure transparency
But it was too hard not to care
Too hard not to care 

That place was just outside our reach
But so close that we could smell it
It was something you couldn’t teach
Or that clicked if you tried to sell it

We wanted a guru of our own
Our own divinely incarnated one
But it was all too much to bear
All too much to bear
