Mobile Home is OUT NOW. Co-produced with Mark Plati, who worked extensively with David Bowie, The Cure, Prince and other greats, Mobile Home is a collection of 11 new songs about loving for the first time, being present, and taking care of our Mobile Home.
Jonathan Widran calls it ‘the playful, sometimes romantic, always thought-provoking, sonically inventive and deeply, deeply spiritual album Bowie forgot to create.’ And Indie Band Guru says, ‘The majority of us have a deep care for the world around us. When we can use our musical talent to create these feelings in others we have truly achieved greatness. Our recent discovery Noah Hoffeld has become a master at this.’

Baby Face ©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

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

Well be back again
So Just stay sane

Never Been in Love ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)
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 ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)
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
Twenty Years Noah Hoffeld ©2022 (ASCAP)
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
Chorus
Born to Love ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)
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
Angels Above ©2022 Noah Hoffeld (ASCAP)
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

Chorus

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

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 The deeper that we go Somethings got a hold of we Pulling us on out to see all
Chorus
Leaving for leaving for Blue City

The angels hold you as you’re flowing On your way
This Morning Noah Hoffeld © 2022 (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.
