When the Earth Moves Again
Journey Home: Unveiling Ancient Echoes in 'When the Earth Moves Again'
Lyrics
In golden Hannibal Carthage days marchin' onto Rome
In the glory days of Hannibal's Carthage, marching towards Rome
Knockin' on the door and findin' nobody home there
Attempting to gain entry but finding no one present
Rome she cut our armies down and left them in the snow
Rome defeated their armies and abandoned them in the cold
So now I go to where I come from now I go home to the sun
Returning to the origins, going back home to the sun
When the earth moves again
Anticipation for a significant change or shift in the world
When the earth moves again my friend
Emphasizing the awaited movement of the earth, addressing a friend
Let the lady ride on through
Allowing nature or a metaphorical lady to proceed uninterrupted
When the earth moves again
Reiterating the anticipation of the earth's movement
Egyptian kings they sing of Gods and pyramids of stone
Referencing Egyptian rulers, their constructions, and their legacy
And they left the deserts clean and they left the deserts golden
Leaving the environment untouched, leaving it pristine and valuable
And shinin' as a beacon for those that need a road
Providing guidance or inspiration for those seeking direction
Into the day and through the night we go and find our way home
Embarking on a journey towards home, regardless of day or night
When the earth moves again
Reiteration of anticipation for the earth's movement
My love to all the people I leave behind
Sending love and regards to those left behind
Search out the new ground around you
Encouragement to explore new opportunities
When the earth moves again
Reiteration of the anticipation for the earth's movement
Your head can pull your body around
Indicating the power of thought to control actions
Leave whenever you can find the ground
Leave when stable ground is found
Take what you find on the land sea foam glass is sand
Appreciate and utilize what's available, even if seemingly insignificant
If you've only lived on earth you've never seen the sun
Living solely on Earth limits one's experiences
Or the promise of a thousand other suns that glow beyond here
Hinting at the existence of other worlds or possibilities beyond Earth
And if you care to see the future look into the eyes
Encouraging to look at the potential future through the eyes of children
Of your young dancing children don't be afraid of our ways
Do not fear change or different perspectives
When the earth moves again
Reiteration of anticipation for the earth's movement
When the earth moves again, my friend
Reiterating the expectation of the earth's movement, addressing a friend
Watch the lady ride and sigh
Observing the movement and emotional response to it
When the earth moves again
Reiteration of the anticipation for the earth's movement
Moses, Moses the red sea closes over you when you least expect it to
Reference to Moses and unexpected challenges
When the earth moves again
Reiteration of anticipation for the earth's movement
When the earth moves again
