Child of man

Noa
Babet (Kar)

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 winters 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 ice chains
In spring I'd bubble and forget the winter's rains

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 glo~~w
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glo~~w
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 mothers milk

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 glo~~w
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glo~~w
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so

Don't be surpri~sed
By this look in my eyes
Like a flower or tree
I will bloom in the spring
I will shed all my wo~es
As the green grass gro~ws
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 winters 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 glo~~w
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so
Don't look so surprised as my eyes shine and glo~~w
It's the sunlight in the skies that is making me so

Don't be surpri~sed
By this look in my eyes
Like a flower or tree
I will bloom in the spring
I will shed all my wo~es
As the green grass gro~ws
Like a flower or tree
I will throw my head back and sing

If I were a desert flower, desert flower
