Baby Face 05:22
©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP) Once upon a time on earth A garden of fulfillment joy and mirth There were only flowers growing And lighting up the sky were lots of birds And into that world was born A tiny infant human girl and boy Sowing their tiny seeds And multiplying then they started to grow Uh oh uh oh! Makin lots of misery For all the flowers and the trees Sinkin into the ground Because they got so big and round But then Chorus Billions of Beautiful Buddha Babies Woke up all over space There aint no need to worry about it They can save the flower race Aint no monster we can cook up that They don’t know how to chase But we gotta face our baby face right now Yeah we gotta face our baby face right now Uh oh uh oh!
 Behold buddha babies Floating on down from outer space They’re Chillin in Lotus form Radiating light love and grace Enough to heal all the birds And pettin petals like a pettin ace! Settin those babies right Without a single word without a fight Buddhafull prayers on high Were raining down from the sky Because Chorus Billions of Beautiful Buddha Babies Woke up all over space There aint no need to worry about it They can save the flower race Aint no monster we can cook up that They don’t know how to chase But we gotta face our baby face right now Yeah we gotta clean our baby waste right now Bridge Yeah Now Oh nOw right nOw Oh wow show me hOw Oh wow right now When they’re all down with us Buddha babies float back up to space They had so much fun with us But now theres other worlds they’ve got to save We can still talk to them Pointing our minds to outer space Giving much thanks to them They say oh hi we’re all the same we’re all the same Its a crazy game Just stay sane Well be back again So Just stay sane Its a crazy game We’ll be back again So just stay the same So just stay the same No don’t stay the same

You taken a little piece of my heart And I don’t know where it went Im feeling its only gonna get worse Cause i’m so in love with you There’s something about the move you move Drilling a hole in me I wanna tell you don’t pull back Cause its way to real There’s only one way to go And now is the time I’ve always said Would come along somehow Ive always waited in my head To feel so real I’ve only we could sew this thread We would surely know What it means to glow Don’t let it go, no no no Chorus Cause If we leave it now where would the love you give go the glow that i feel from you cutting through me like a charring coal its always been real with you so far from the endless show you took my life away i never been in love never been in love before This is a tale I never read A path to don’t know where I’ll follow it where it wants to go I feel blessed to not know My worlds turning round and round And everything feels new This is way too real Don’t let it go, no no no Chorus never been in love before you never been in love before You are the one who showed me how Who showed me through that door And now I know, now I know There’s so, so much more

Be Here Now 05:57
Waiting for that some day At the rainbow’s end Waiting for that someone The friend of all friends When the love you seeks inside you In fact its what you are peeling back protection You’ve worn all over those scars Wait no more Step thru that door Chorus Just be here now Be here now This is how you live now Be here now There’s more to self deception Than being what you’re not You deprive all those in this world Of the beauty that you are Well wait no more You know that You are all Chorus Just be here now You can you can Be here now This is how you live now Just be here now So when you’re crying in the back seat of your car And you don’t remember who the hell you are Then you look up at the sky you say What on earth you’d send me for Just remember you’re a star Cause we all fall on our face sometimes And we all face loneliness sometimes And we all make sorry choices that we’re all growing from But it don’t pay at all to hold on You can just right yourself and move on Chorus Just be here now Be here now Forgive yourself I said and move on This is how you live now Just be here now Let the future be the future Be here now be here now Listen to the birds they sing and say This is how you breathe now Just be here now Stop all you’re doing and just be Be here now Relax your mind your soul and say Be here now ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)

Twenty Years 04:34
Now now that we have been so long we fall apart And now now that 20 years have past by Throw it all away. There's nothing left to say So suffocating don't feel so bad after all Woah people have the strangest way to get Used to it all Chorus But this rain of fire is surely slowly burnin me alive with this chain of iron that once felt so right Can't walk another mile Holding on Love, such a silly game to play You’re rollin the dice I know, you don't mean to throw those knives You're living out of mind But this rain of fire is surely slowly burnin me alive with this chain of iron that once felt so right Can't walk another mile Holding on Noah Hoffeld ©2022 (ASCAP)

Born To Love 05:18
We were born to love For all our reasons We were born to love In all God’s seasons And despite all the times that we’ve broken Been taken for all we got And despite all the times We been shaken Shaken into doubt We were born to love In fact its all we are A beating heart in a cage For which we hold the key And there’s only one way to go my friend This world is growing colder So for just one day lets let the sun play On your lonely shoulder Chorus Push on through the night don’t you let go Daylight’s coming on before too long Keep on moving you will be alright We were born to love Its the light love Loving is god’s way To clothe her own And this simple garment faded and torn Its color once was gold But the more its worn its threadbare holes Reveal the owner’s soul Chorus Push on through the night don’t you let go Daylight’s coming on before too long Keep on moving you will be alright God is with the lowly lacking might She will keep you warm don’t you let go Don’t let go ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)

Angels Above 04:43
Angels above me, angels below Angels beside me everywhere I go I walk on down to the riverside to lay down all my woe I lift my eyes to the sky Can you hear me I wanna live a life I can really call my own I wanna dump this strife that is bringing the whole thing down I spend way too much time building castles in the sky I want a change of scene Can you hear me Chorus I know that I’ve got someone Who’s looking over me I feel a soul surrounding me on this holy summer night And I don’t feel lonely cause we’re not alone I know somehow that everything will be alright Thanks to angels above me angels below Angels beside me everywhere I go Love falls in waterfalls everywhere I know I’ll never be all alone Oh I can never be lonely Baby don’t you see Im never alone now angels over me Im building a brand new life I'm leaving doubt aside Im gonna walk right out in rainbows Chorus I know that I’ve got someone Who’s looking over me I feel a soul surrounding me on this holy night And I don’t feel lonely cause we’re not alone I know somehow that everything will be alright Tonight yeah tonight All thanks to Angels above me, angels below Angels beside me everywhere we go Love falls in waterfalls everywhere I know I’ll never be all alone Angel inside of me ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)

The Dream’s been laid bare But I won’t be leaving now It’s just a clock that’s ticking loud Born to live for America Jesus take me down Down where we belong We've been where the visions born Born to live for America I was roaming free I felt like I was free Like I was brought up to be Born to live for America Fear had kept me down Shaking in my grief But before I drowned I was born to live for America Take a breath my brother And take one for me my sister While I bow to the mystery That was born to live for America Its a long nasty road That must be trod for good But walk it I would We were born to live for America Born to Live....

Blue City 08:38
On our way The world aglow we’re on our way To a place we dared not go But were gone so gone We’re letting go Letting go of what we know That’s the way we go We’re on our way Todays the day Don’t look away You know the way yay See the lights go flashing by See the loving in your eye woah T he deeper that we go Somethings got a hold of we Pulling us on out to see all Chorus Leaving for leaving for Blue City Blue City Leave it all behind leaving for Blue City Blue City A place behind your mind There’s a place beyond space And beyond time Where the flowers the grow and grow And we unwind They call Blue City I wanna tell you so you know What’s truly true You probably heard its but a few Who deserve to go But you know Chorus We’re all leaving for Blue City Blue City Leave it all behind leaving for Blue City Blue City A place behind your mind Oh lets go We’re on our way Now can’t you hear those voices call you On our way Now I can hear those voices call me Come our way The Buddha came the way we’re going On our way The Christ It lights the way you’re going On our way The Mother loves you as you’re going On your way Now can’t you hear their voices call you Come our way Have faith The angels hold you as you’re flowing On your way ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)

Saw the paper on my screen this morning Lay my head back down to sleep again Woke up later on turned the tv on Has it all gone wrong this morning Now im on my way out to the subway But my heads still reeling from a dream I saw leaders lie To hold up their disguise When will we get wise this morning Chorus And we still got so far still to go Just look around at all the woe (Grows and grows) There’s just one thing that we would like to know Why the pain in this world So hard so plain in this world How can we help this world this morning. Now I stand inside your downtown tower You built to show us you’ve got power Under a vibrating sun we are all but one You ain’t free till all have won this morning Chorus This morning celebrating all we got This morning sharing all with those who’ve not I’m calling surely we can take a shot This morning This morning. ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)

about

“Although we couldn’t all record Hoffeld’s new album Mobile Home under the same roof due to the pandemic, the songs came together nicely and felt really cohesive. I suspect that mostly had to do with the power of the songs themselves. The record goes from moody to playful to poppy to epic and back again ... a real journey. I wouldn't expect anything less from Noah.”

--Mark Plati, coproducer (David Bowie, The Cure, Prince)

Noah Hoffeld originally came from a classical music background, but playing the classics was never completely satisfying for him. Before graduating from Juilliard, Hoffeld brought rock and pop to the cello. Soon, an urge to spread a message of care for people and the planet propelled him to pick up the electric guitar and synth and write songs. Now his new album Mobile Home, co-produced with Mark Plati, reminds listeners to “Take care your mobile home.”

Noah Hoffeld sends the message that now is the time for us to slow down and tune into what we really are. Baeble Music wrote that Hoffeld’s self-produced debut brought “the best of classical music and modern rock to bear to gorgeous effect." And Indie-Music.com stated that "artists just don’t make this type of work anymore; it’s ambitious, assertive and very satisfying to hear."

Hoffeld performs on Brad Mehldau’s 2020 Grammy-winning album Finding Gabriel, plays cello solos for artists like Renee Fleming and Natalie Merchant, and for films like The Skeleton Twins. Noah is also a regular band-member for Krishna Das, “rock star of the yoga world.”

A longtime devotee of yoga and meditation, Noah Hoffeld believes in the power of contemplation and takes to heart Gandhi's saying, “Be the change you wish to see in the World.”
