I wanna go to Shambhala
I wanna wash away my pain
I need the healing Waters
To cleanse me from this shame
Sister got the eyes with flowers
a shambhala state of mind
Won't you show me, brother?
where everyone is so kind?
I gotta climb the Himalaya
but I can't go it on my own
I need a someone with me
so's I'm not so awful all alone
you say people are helpful
and there's always room for more
i need to find the entrance
and open up the hope door
but the flowers they have blinded
Will you guide me, friend?
I gotta find that peace
To make this grieving end
My little light is shining
she's burning oh so bright
If you'll go along with me
We can end the endless 3 dog night
