[02:21.45] This glancing life is like a morning star
[02:25.33]
[02:27.02] A setting sun, or rolling waves at sea
[02:31.16]
[02:32.48] A gentle breeze or lightning in a storm
[02:36.07]
[02:37.43] A dancing dream of all eternity
[02:41.57]
[02:43.09] The sand was shimmering in the morning light
[02:47.09]
[02:48.41] And dancing off the dunes so far away
[02:52.54]
[02:53.88] The night held music so sweet, so long
[02:57.88]
[02:59.26] And there we lay until the break of day
[03:03.54]
[03:10.43] We woke that morning at the onward call
[03:14.49]
[03:15.61] Our camels bridled up, our howdahs full
[03:20.01]
[03:21.01] The sun was rising in the eastern sky
[03:25.13]
[03:26.48] Just as we set out to the desert’s cry
[03:30.68]
[03:31.76] Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
[03:51.51]
[03:56.70] The tents grew smaller as we rode away
[03:59.73]
[04:01.54] On earth that tells of many passing days
[04:05.94]
[04:06.94] The months of peace and all the years of war
[04:10.96]
[04:12.08] The lives of love and all the lives of fears
[04:16.20]
[04:16.98] Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
[04:36.61]
[04:41.11] We crossed the river beds all etched in stone
[04:44.95]
[04:46.08] And up the mighty mountains ever known
[04:50.35]
[04:51.35] Beyond the valleys in the searing heat
[04:55.28]
[04:56.36] Until we reached the caravanserai
[05:00.63]
[05:01.19] Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
[05:20.58]
[05:22.21] Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
[05:41.29]
[06:01.33] What is this life that pulls me far away
[06:05.11]
[06:06.35] What is that home where we cannot reside
[06:10.93]
[06:11.82] What is that quest that pulls me onward
[06:15.96]
[06:17.17] My heart is full when you are by my side
[06:21.30]
[06:22.30] Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
[06:41.67]
[06:42.98] Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
[07:03.02]
[07:07.21]
[02:21.45] This glancing life is like a morning star
