I know a bodhisattva
I met him as a child
He was an angry kid then
Mad and wild

He found me last year
Reached out and touched my heart
Saw me through a crisis
That was just the start

Bodhisattva will stay behind
Help the less fortunate kind

I would do anything for this man
Anything on earth
He has changed my life for the better
Shown me what I’m worth

He makes me happier than I am
I’m a pretty negative guy
But when I’m talking to him
All I see is blue sky

Bodhisattva will stay behind
Help the less fortunate kind

What is it about some people
That they shine a light
That illuminates everyone around them
And makes the future bright

He could be an ascended soul
He doesn’t belong here below
I think he stays out of goodness
And he’s decided not to go

Bodhisattva will stay behind
Help the less fortunate kind

I know a bodhisattva
I met him as a child
He was an angry kid then
Mad and wild
