This Glancing life is like a morning star A setting sun, or rolling waves at sea A gentle breeze or lighting in a storm A dancing dream of all eternity The sand was shimmering in the morning light And dancing off the dunes so far away The night held music so sweet, so long And there we lay until the break of day (x2) We woke that morning at the onward call Our camels bridled up, our howdahs full The sun was rising in the eastern sky Just as we set out to the desert's cry Cal...ling, yearning, pu...lling 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) (x2)

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la beauté fugace de la vie, comparant les instants précieux à des phénomènes naturels comme une étoile du matin ou le soleil couchant. Elle parle d'un voyage à travers le désert, où les souvenirs d'amour et de conflit se mêlent, tandis que le protagoniste ressent une profonde nostalgie et un appel vers un lieu qui semble être à la fois un domicile physique et spirituel. Les images de paysages désertiques, de tentes qui s'éloignent, et de cœurs en quête de connexion renforcent ce sentiment d'un appel inexorable vers un amour ou une appartenance perdue. C'est une réflexion sur le passage du temps et le désir de retrouver ce qui nous est cher.
