Kafra (Arabic: كفرة‎) was a Palestinian Arab village located 10.5 kilometres north of Baysan. Built along both sides of the Wadi Kafra, the village had been known by this name since at least the time of the Crusades.[3] The population of the village in 1922 was 273, rising to an estimated 499 in 1948. It was depopulated by the Israel Defence Force during the 1948 Palestine War on May 16, 1948.[2]

Girl

by: Giuffria

Be my, be my baby
Yesterday, I was watching the turning tide, of a memories of a changing shore line
Otherwise, was nevermore. Life was different, you closed the door
Still in all my heart is true, there's no forgetting you, what can I do?
Girl, don't you feel the things you've done to me
Took my broken heart and set it free, oh, girl.
Memories, change with every passing day, change with every word you stay
Lost in love without a trace, find myself, in a different place
Listen girl, I still believe, you'll find a way, come back to me
Girl, don't you feel the things you've done to me
Took my broken heart and set it free, oh, girl.
Now the flame is burning, but the fire is gone
This love that's haunting me, but I still push on
You touched controls, and they're moving me
And I can't break away, no.
Solo
Today, I sat and watched the setting sun, sit and think of only love,
A distance shore, a far away, restless heart so hard to tame
Listen girl, I still believe, you'll find you're way, come back to me
Girl, don't you feel the things you've done to me
Took my broken heart and set it free, oh, girl.
Girl, don't you close your eyes and walk away
Let me down and just fade away, oh, girl.
Don't you feel those things you do, don't you feel those things you do to me,
Oh, yeah, I said girl, girl, yeah
What you've done, don't you feel those feelings there
