Lyrics
From Eden To Canaan
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So sweet, so fine
So gentle and mild
The soul of an angel
The eyes of a child
Well I do love that woman
And she feels the same
She gave someone else her promise
I gave someone else my name
And from Eden to Canaan
It’s many a long mile
We are only sojourners
Just here for a while
So sweet, so fine
Her hair so black
She smiled as I passed her
I stopped and I turned back
I wish I’d kept moving
‘Cause who can I blame
She would never break her promise
I would not take back my name
And from Eden to Canaan
It’s many a long mile
We are only sojourners
Just here for a while
So sweet, so fine
A tear in her eye
I’ll always remember
Her words of goodbye
You have danced in my heart
And I’ll not be the same
Though I’ll never have her promise
And she’ll never have my name
And from Eden to Canaan
It’s many a long mile
We are only sojourners
Just here for a while
Here for a while
Eden to Canaan
Here for a while
Eden to Canaan
Here for a while
Eden to Canaan
Here for a while
Eden to Canaan
Here for a while
Eden to Canaan…
