Music and lyric: Loreena McKennitt      This glancing life is like a morning star   A setting sun, or rolling waves at sea   A gentle breeze or lightning 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      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      Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you      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      Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you      We crossed the river beds all etched in stone   And up the mighty mountains ever known   Beyond the valleys in the searing heat   Until we reached the caravanserai      Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you   Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you      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      Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
