"The Call"

I'm currently obsessed with this song by Regina Skeptor. It was written for the movie Prince Caspian, and although it doesn't really apply to any area of my life right now, it has, and it will, and either way, it's downright beautiful.

It started out as a feeling
which then grew into a hope,
which then turned into a quiet thought,
which then turned into a quiet word.
And then that word grew louder and louder
until it was a battle cry-
I'll come back when you call me;
no need to say goodbye.

Just because everything's changing
doesn't mean it's never been this way before.
All you can do is try to know who your friends are
as you head off to the war.
Pick a star on the dark horizon
and follow the light...
You'll come back when it's over;
no need to say goodbye.

Now we're back to the beginning-
it's just a feeling and no one knows yet.
But just because they can't feel it too
doesn't mean that you have to forget.
Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
until they're before your eyes.
You'll come back when they call you;
no need to say goodbye.

*EDIT*
Reading over the lyrics, this song sounds pretty lame.
Maybe I'm just a sucker for that kind of stuff.
Or maybe Regina Skeptor's voice mixed with amazing instrumental skills can make anything sound beautiful.
Gay or not. It's still on repeat.

I knew it. I thought someone was looking over my shoulder.
BTW, your sister said she would call me like three months ago, and never did. So next time you see her... don't send her my love!
