Green fields and rolling hills
room enough to do what we will
sweet dreams of yestertime are running though my mind
of a place i left behind, been so long, i can't remember when
i've been to canaan and i want to go back again
Been so long, i'm living till then
cause i've been to canaan and i won't rest until
i go back again. though i'm content with myself
sometimes i long to be somewhere else
i try to do what i can, but with our day to day demands
we all need a promised land.
Been so long,i can't remember when
i've been to canaan and i want to go back again
been so long, i'm living till then
'cause i've been to canaan and i won't rest until
i go back again. oh i want to be there in the wintertime
with a fireplace burning to warm me
and you to hold me when it's stormy
Been so long, i can't remember when
i've been to canaan and i want to go back again
been so long,i'm living till then.
