One More Desperado

Lord, I'm ready to come home

To the land of cows and cowherds

To the place where every step's a dance

Where every word's a song

Lord, I'm tired of this prison

And it's You, Lord, I am missin'

I am sorry that I left You 'n' that

I've been gone for so long 

I've tried so hard for pleasure

But with pleasure came such pain

I've tried life after life, but

Bliss I never really gained

I've grown so tired of wandering

I no longer want to roam

Lord, I'm one more desperado

Comin' home

Let my mind be drawn to You

Like a river to the ocean

Like a drowning man wants air, Lord

Let me crave Your holy names

Let me bathe in Your love

Like a turtle in the Ganga

Like a lizard in the sunshine

Let me bask in krsna-prema

Queen Kunti prays, “Please let me 

Be attached only to You!"

Let my mind become attracted to

Your form of storm-cloud blue!

You promise if I come back

I'll no longer have to roam

Lord, I'm one more desperado

Comin' home

(Instrumental)

Let me hold tight to Your feet

Like a monkey holds a sweetball

Like a honeybee loves nectar

Let me love You more and more

Yes, I'm eager to come home

To the land of milk and honey

Where everything and everyone

With love they serve You, Lord

Like a man lost in a desert

Yearns for water most of all

I am desperate to return, Krsna!

Oh, Lord, please hear my call!

I've been through crores of lifetimes

I no longer want to roam

Lord, I'm one more desperado

Comin' home

Due to my sinful desires from Your

Abode I have been hurled

By Your grace I understand now

I don't belong in this world

I am cryin' out to You, Lord

From this place where I've been thrown

Lord, I'm one more desperado

Comin' home

I’m a child cryin’ to its mother

You’re my shelter—I have no other

Lord, I’m one more desperado

Comin’ home
