Noah Lyrics
on the first of december
i was commissioned to
sail away on a ship
that was sinking
forty nights
and forty days
and while i went under
the tears of a
murdered land
were turning the
earth into sand
i'm too cold to
be sleeping
so i light up
a candle of regret
to burn the secrets
i'm keeping
and pray that someday
i can forget
the cries of
my people
the voices of doubt
inside my head
i think of the things
that you said
am i alone here
are there others
like me too
safe in my capsule
unable to move
how long has it
been now
and where will
this journey end
will it end
ohhh yeah
got the hands
of a farmer
the worlds of a
preacher's tongur
got the heart
of a sailor
to believe till
your work is done
i will stand
in the ocean
with these wooden
planks under my feet
i will come
to your table
after my
journey's complete
i believe in the future
i can feel the
blood rising in
my veins
it's the sound of
a battle cry
when only the
echo remains
i will serve
you forever
i will build you
a nation of love
i'm relying
on luck oh god
the fourleaf
clover from a dove
and isn't it crazy
for me to start
life brand new
and when i
find ararat
the first
thing that i do
stright across
the country-side
and nap in that
sweet sunlight
i'll be singing
a love song
for my mydear
dear wife
and nap in that
sweet sunlight
before the night is over
i'll be crying
on your shoulder
my wild imagination
is keeping me
from losing patience
why did you make us
only to tear us away
why have you chosen me
it was your
fault anyway
