Carole King - Been To Canaan lyrics

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.

'Cause I've been to Canaan and I won't rest until

I go back again

I've been to Canaan and I won't rest until

I go back again
