This Glancing life is like a morning star
A setting sun, or rolling waves a t sea
A gentle breeze or lighting in a sto rm
A dancing dream of all eter nity
The sand was shimmering in the mornin g light
And dancing off the dunes so far away
The night held music so sweet, so long
And there we lay until the break o f day
(x2)
We woke that morning at the onward call
Our camels bridled up, our howdah s full
The sun was rising in the easter n sky
Just as we set out to the de sert' s cry
Cal.. .ling , ye arnin g, pu ...ll ing home to you
(x2)
The tents grew smaller as we rode away
On earth that tells of many passing days
The months of peace and all the years of war
The lives of love and all the lives of fears
Cal...ling, yearning, pu...lling home to you
(x2)
We crossed the rivers beds all etched in stone
And up the mighty mountains ever known
Beyond the valleys in the searing heat
Until we reached the caravanserai
Cal...ling, yearning, pu...lling home to you
Cal...ling, yearning, pu...lling home to you
(x2)
What is this life that pulls me far away
What is that home where we cannot reside
What is that quest that pulls me onward
My heart is full when you are by my side
Cal...ling, yearning, pulling home to you (x2)
