about

“Calling You” is an electronic version of Bob Telson’s theme song from the film Bagdad Café. Samples from seminal electronic duo SND provide the beats, and the lyrics speak both to the action in the here and now, to call to you, as well as to the universal call to all of us from the space and time after the living of life as we know it.

lyrics

Calling You

A desert road from Vegas to nowhere
It's someplace better than where you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixing
In a little cafe just around the bend

I am calling you – can't you hear me
I am calling you

A hot dry wind blows right thru me
The baby's crying and I can't sleep
But I can feel a change is coming
Coming closer sweet release

I am calling you – I know you hear me
I am calling you

I'm gonna walk through the desert to find you
Gonna leave behind the only life I know
Cause there's a place for hearts that need fixing
A little cafe with a magic show
