NOA

1 - I don't know
(Noa)

Flower, colored bright, I am strong, I can fight
But I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Tower, brick and stone, make my way on my own
But I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I don't know why, I don't how
If I can fly, can I fly know ?
Are my wings strong enough to bear the wind out there ?
Hey, hey, hey, I don't know

Flower, colored bright, I am strong, I can fight
But I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Tower, brick and stone, make my way on my own
But I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I don't know why, I don't how
If I can fly, can I fly know ?
Are my wings strong enough to bear the wind out there ?
Hey, hey, hey, I don't know

Tell me it'll never fade and I'll go forth unafraid
'Cause I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
Show me rain and flood to cool the fire in my blood
'Cause I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

I don't know why, I don't how
If I can fly, can I fly know ?
Are my wings strong enough to bear the wind out there ?
Hey, hey, hey, I don't know…

I don't know why, I don't how
If I can fly, can I fly know ?
Are my wings strong enough to bear the wind out there ?
I don't know why, I don't how
If I can fly, can I fly know ?
Are my wings strong enough to bear the wind out there...

2 - Wildflower
(Noa / Noa-G. Dor)

In a tenement near the Henry Hudson River
From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape
I would look below and see Mario braving the ferocious dandelions
Mario, our fearless superintendent kept the garden green despite the parkway smog
But the flowering weeds, their fates decreed
Pulled to keep his rosebush from dying
Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed
Something strong was pulling at my head
Pulling at my heart, pulling at my heart

Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places
Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush
Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields
Tell me who will love this wildflower for exactly what she is

Years passed by, we left that red brick building
Left Mario behind for a brand new house
But my dark brown skin on the white washed walls within stood out
So it'd get me up and cryin'
My growing pains had many rooms to fill then
Mother never knew, she had a garden to keep clean
While there was New York grease on her young flower from the Middle East
She was busy pulling dandelions
Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed
Something strong was pulling at my head
Pulling at my heart, pulling at my heart

Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places
Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush
Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields
Tell me who will love this wildflower for exactly what she is
Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places
Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush
Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields
Tell me who will love this wildflower for exactly what she is

3 - Mishaela
(G. Dor / Noa)

Beļneļoh, mi yodeo
Ananim aforim mitpozrim laarba rochot
Nachala achzav mitmale
Desh yearok mechaseh
Vehamerchav niftach
Lashamaļm, zoug aļnayim
Mavitot, mechapsot, tsolelot bachachavi hakar
Merachafot baovir el hazahav hameļr
Et searah harar

Mishaela, mat at roah ?
Mah veliber hatsochek el otah hadmamah ?
Az et eļnaļ li tifkach
Keshet achat bamizrach
Vahalo day bechar
Mishaela, mat at roah ?
Mah veliber hatsochek el otah hadmamah ?
Az et eļnaļ li tifkach
Keshet achat bamizrach
Vahalo day bechar

Beļneļoh, mi yodeo
Ananim aforim mitpozrim laarba rochot
Nachala achzav mitmale
Desh yearok mechaseh
Vehamerchav niftach
Vahalo day li, day li bechar ?
Vahalo day li, vahalo day bechar

4 - Path to follow
(Noa)

I found a path to follow
I knew it straight away
Now that I found it, I won't stray
No I will not stray, not stray

I walk through the woods and holler
The songbirds will laugh and play
They know I've found it and won't stray
No I will not stray, not stray

The woods are alive with laughter
The rivers are drunk with mirth
They all know what I've been after
They're rejoicing for my rebirth, for my rebirth

I found a path to follow
I knew it straight away
Now that I found it, I won't stray
No I will not stray, not stray

The woods are alive with laughter
The rivers are drunk with mirth
They all know what I've been after
They're rejoicing for my rebirth, for my rebirth

I found a path to follow but it's a path for two
Why don't you come here beside me, I won't stray
No I will not stray from you

5 - Child of man
(Based on a chinese Haiku)
(Noa / Noa-G. Dor)

If I were a desert flower
All winter long I'd pain and cower
Spring would make me sing
My voice would ring as tiny buds begin to bloom
In spring I'd blossom and forget the winter's gloom

If I were a brook of water
Kissed by the frost along my borders
Spring would make me sing
My voice would ring as I'd release my icy chains
In spring I'd bubble and forget the winter 's rains

I'm only a child of man
I'm only a child of man
Just an innocent child of man
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so

If I were a joyful songbird
All winter so cold and somber
Spring would make me sing
My voice would ring like tiny bells on scarves of silk
As song as beautiful and pure as mother's milk

I'm only a child of man
I'm only a child of man
Just an innocent child of man
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so

Don't be surprised by this look in my eyes
Like a flower or tree, I will bloom in the spring
I will shed all my woes as the green grass grows
Like a flower or tree, I'll throw my head back and sing!

If I were a desert flower
All winter long I'd pain and cower
Spring would make me sing
My voice would ring as tiny buds begin to bloom
In spring I'd blossom and forget the winter's gloom

But I'm only a child of man
I'm only a child of man
Just an innocent child of man
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glow
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so

Don't be surprised by this look in my eyes
Like a flower or tree, I will bloom in the spring
I will shed all my woes as the green grass grows
Like a flower or tree, I'll throw my head back and sing!

7 - Lady night
(Noa / G. Dor)

I walk alone into lady night
She wraps me in her black veils, wraps me tight
Her velvet touch on my weary eyes
Kisses softly, windy sighs
Lady Night in her grandeur flaunts jewel of light
Flirting with Sir Half-moon
She shimmies slowly backs-o'-mountains, slowly backs-o'-mountains
Dips her hair in twilight

Walk alone into lady night
The woman's discreet as a grave and I know she'll want your tears
Lady Night's got an appetite for sorrow liquidated into pearls of light
One by one, she'll gather them to her breast
Kiss your lowered eyes and bid you rest
She takes me to her tummy, I clutch her warmth
I know that I am falling
She delves into my mind, delves into my mind
Brings out my darkest thoughts to keep her dark from dawning
I know that's what she wants

I turn my back to Lady Night, my mind is clear
My pearls are in her satchel
I've paid my share of blackness to her
Turn my back to the lady, though she calls
She calls but I am going to the dawn
I am going to the dawn, I am going to the dawn
She can no longer keep me

8 - Uri
(Rachel / Noa)

Ben lou hayah li, yeled katan

9 - It's obvious
(Noa)

It's obvious you're special, I've known it all along
I suspected you from the moment you flew through my window
And fell to the floor saying "I'm yours, take me I'm yours"

And it's obvious I'am crazy with every hazy dawn
I inspect myself and in the light of my plight
I am certain as loud I may roar
My eyes will implore how fully I'm yours

Have you ever been told you're too utterly bold to be true
With a flash of your smile, I am baffled, beguiled, I'm bewildered by you
Do you know the love you inspire
Would make me fly higher than I've ever flown before
Now inspire me to more, inspire me to more

Have you ever been told you're too utterly bold to be true
With a flash of your smile, I am baffled, beguiled, I'm bewildered by you
Do you know the love you inspire
Would make me fly higher than I've ever flown before
Now inspire me to more, inspire me to more, to more
Do you know the love you inspire
Would make me fly higher than I've ever flown before
Now inspire me to more, inspire me to more
To more, to more

10 - Desire
(Noa / Noa-G. Dor)

With the breaking of the dawn, I will peek beyond the glass
There's an endless strech of blue below an ocean cold and vast
I am traveling again between the heavens and the clouds
Reaching out, turning a vision into a future, strong and proud

But I say, oh there's nothing more I desire
Then I spend my life with you
Setting me gently on fire

We're a very special two, only you can understand
Walking parallel on separate paths but always holding hands
As we lay your yellow bricks on the road to something better
Can we find a point of meeting and continue on together

And I say, oh there's nothing more I desire
Then I spend my life with you
Setting me gently on fire
And I say, oh there's nothing more I desire
Then I spend my life with you
Setting me gently on fire
Gently on fire, gently on fire

11 - Ave Maria
(Noa / Bach- Gunaud)

Ave Maria
Where have you been hiding
Don't you know we need you
Things are looking pretty bad down here
I know that there is beauty, gentleness and laughter
These are things you always stood for
Help us find them too
Hey there Maria, Santa Maria… Maria, Maria

May I take a liberty and say that it's a shame to me not to live in harmony
We're all just hoping someone will step forward singing Amen, Amen
Come on and sing

Ave Maria
Where have you been hiding
Don't you know we need you
Things are looking pretty bad down here
I know you hear the fighting
See the torch we're lighting
On our quest for peace and freedom
Help us find this through
Hey there Maria, Santa Maria… Maria, Maria

May I take a liberty
And say that it's a shame to me not to live in harmony
We're all just hoping someone will step forward singing Amen, Amen
Come on and sing Amen
Amen, Amen, Amen…
