The inspiration behind “Caravan” is evident in Giraud’s description of the song’s imagery: “Night and stars that shine above so bright… Night isn’t really dark in the Sahara. The sky is indigo blue illuminated by stars whose iridescence dances and bounces against the shimmering sands of the desert.” This vivid imagery is perfectly captured in the song’s dreamy, ethereal quality.
