Dm F C Am
This glancing life is like a morning star
Dm F C Am
A setting sun, or rolling waves at sea
Dm F C Am
A gentle breeze or lightning in a storm
Dm F C Dm
A dancing dream of all eternity
Dm F C Am
The sand was shimmering in the morning light
Dm F C Am
And dancing off the dunes so far away
Dm F C Am
The night held music so sweet, so long
Dm F C Dm
And there we lay until the break of day
Dm F C Am
We woke that morning at the onward call
Dm F C Am
Our camels bridled up, our howdahs full
Dm F C Am
The sun was rising in the eastern sky
Dm F C Dm
Just as we set out to the desert’s cry
Dm F C Am Dm F C Am Dm
Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you

Dm F C Am
The tents grew smaller as we rode away
Dm F C Am
On earth that tells of many passing days
Dm F C Am
The months of peace and all the years of war
Dm F C Dm
The lives of love and all the lives of fears
Dm F C Am Dm F C Am Dm
Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
Dm F C Am
We crossed the river beds all etched in stone
Dm F C Am
And up the mighty mountains ever known
Dm F C Am
Beyond the valleys in the searing heat
Dm F C Dm
Until we reached the caravanserai
Dm F C Am Dm F C Am Dm
Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
Dm F C Am Dm F C Am Dm
Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
Dm F C Am
What is this life that pulls me far away
Dm F C Am
What is that home where we cannot reside
Dm F C Am
What is that quest that pulls me onward
Dm F C Dm
My heart is full when you are by my side
Dm F C Am Dm F C Am Dm
Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
Dm F C Am Dm F C Am Dm
Calling, yearning, pulling, home to you
