Nothing But A Song
from Love Medicine by Noa (Achinoam Nini)
lyrics
Nothing but a song
Your eyes say all that your mouth cannot say
And I, I want to fly
Fly like the birds over the lake
In the early dawn
With nothing on my mind
Nothing but a song.
Your hands
Say all that your head will not dare
And I, I want to cry,
Cry out your name into the night…
Till the early dawn
With nothing on my lips,
Nothing but a song.
Wake up and see me, I’m right here beside you
Or over the ocean in some foreign land
Where’s there’s sand and there’s sand
Or I’m high in a tower with cars down below
Or I’m deep in the snow
Here again I’m beside you, my heart seeking out your embrace
Though I don’t really know you, I see in your face
There is goodness, a child playing ball in the street
dreaming always of dolphins…
Your smile
Is all that the world can’t destroy
And we, we want to see
Though all the pain, and all the tears…
All that has gone wrong..
With nothing in our hearts…
Nothing but a song.
Your eyes say all that your mouth cannot say
And I, I want to fly
Fly like the birds over the lake
In the early dawn
With nothing on my mind
Nothing but a song.
Your hands
Say all that your head will not dare
And I, I want to cry,
Cry out your name into the night…
Till the early dawn
With nothing on my lips,
Nothing but a song.
Wake up and see me, I’m right here beside you
Or over the ocean in some foreign land
Where’s there’s sand and there’s sand
Or I’m high in a tower with cars down below
Or I’m deep in the snow
Here again I’m beside you, my heart seeking out your embrace
Though I don’t really know you, I see in your face
There is goodness, a child playing ball in the street
dreaming always of dolphins…
Your smile
Is all that the world can’t destroy
And we, we want to see
Though all the pain, and all the tears…
All that has gone wrong..
With nothing in our hearts…
Nothing but a song.
