Song | Child of Man |
Artist | Noa |
Album | Live in Israel |
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 | |
But I am only a child of man | |
I am 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 | |
If I were a joyful songbird | |
All winter long so cold and somber | |
Spring would make me sing | |
My voice would ring like tiny bells on scarves | |
Of silk | |
A song as beautiful and pure as mother's milk | |
But I am only a child of man | |
I am 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 be surprised | |
By this look in me 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 will 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 | |
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 | |
But I am only a child of man | |
I am 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 | |
If I were a joyful songbird | |
All winter long so cold and somber | |
Spring would make me sing | |
My voice would ring like tiny bells on scarves | |
Of silk | |
A song as beautiful and pure as mother' s milk | |
But I am only a child of man | |
I am 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 be surprised | |
By this look in me 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 will throw my head back and sing |
