Caravans to Mecca

Built a bamboo canoe on the shore of Peru
And piloted that mothersucker to Kathmandu
Got lost beneath the Tropic of Cancer in June
During the monsoon season, I didn't know what to do

Met a few Somali pirates, made me one of their crew
Took a big ship from mooring now I'm hunting for you
Went smooth to the Sudan, we made a few moves
Needed money to cross the desert, trying to run into you

At night, we drink Tea Stars, cover and soothe
I can't sleep my eyes wide, I'm picturing you
The lights are playing tricks on my mind, I assume
'Cause I'm seeing your face glisten' in the neck of the moon

Seeing your face glisten' in the neck of the moon
Got me daydreaming the night through, thinking of you
As sky strips, is topless out of the blue
When I squint them light droplets, are visions of you

I've been wondering how you're living, wanna visit with you
Grinning and winning, only thing missing is you
Your face glistens in the neck of the moon
Got me daydreaming the night through, I'm visioning you

Fools who seek loot know I'm looking for you
Thieves reach for jewels, but I'm looking for you
To every corner of the Earth I'll move
That connects under the planets, I'ma check them too

I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)

Over dunes and high sands to the land's interior
We drifted down the Niger River to Nigeria
I met a priest from the dark star Sirius
Who knew most mysterious things from past periods

Even he couldn't tell me which direction to move
Saying love is beyond fortune and the portions of fools
And the man's worth is equal to the thing he pursues
So, for me, the best treasure will be looking for you

Cross the high deserts looking for you
Thieves who seek treasure know I'm looking for you
Your face glistens in the neck of the moon
Got me daydreaming the night through, picturing you

Wondering how you're living, wanna visit with you
I've been grinning and winning, only thing missing is you
To every corner of the Earth I'll move
That connects under the planets I'ma check them too

I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)

I confess I'm deep in this endeavor
Just to get to never stop 'til the two of we together
I was blessed to meet some brothers and some feathers with connections
Who helped me with some feather wings, who had some big agendas

Now I'm sitting in this caravan headed out to Mecca
Looking for you everywhere, nothing will be better than
To find you when we get there, waiting for me like a treasure
With the worth it never could be matched or even measured

Caravans to Mecca, looking for you
Over burned sands and deserts, looking for you
Your face glistens in the neck of the moon
Got me daydreaming the night through, picturing you

Caravans to Mecca, looking for you
Over burned sands and deserts, I'm looking for you
To every corner of the Earth I'll move
That connects under the planets I'ma check them too

I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)
I'm looking for you (looking for you)

Caravans to Mecca
