Lyrics

Land Of 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.

You can go to the east to find your

Your inner hemisphere

You say we're under the same sky babe

Your bound to realize honey it's not that clear

I'm not your promised land oh no

I'm not your promised one

I'm not the land of canaan sweetheart

Waiting for you under the sun

I'm lonely tonight

I'm missing you now

I'm wanting your love

And you're giving it out

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

Well, the meanings changed

For what it's worth

It's just a senseless game

Well I should think of love

But it's fear every time I hear

Honey your heartbeat strain

It's not the fallen man

It's not the call of time

It's just the london skyline sweetheart

Telling me you're not mine

I'm lonely tonight

I'm missing you now

I'm wanting your love

And you're giving it out

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

My blood is running dry

My skin is, my skin is growing thin

For every time you find yourself

You loose a little bit of me honey from within

It's just a raging cycle

Why can't we bring it all to the end of the line

From inside this existence, sweetheart

Time is not on my side

I'm lonely tonight

I'm missing you now

I'm wanting your love

And you're giving it out

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm lonely tonight

I'm not your promised land

(I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not your promised one

(honey I'm trying to tell you that I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not your promised land

I'm not your promised one

I'm not the land of canaan

(I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not your land of canaan

(I'm lonely tonight)

I'm not the land of canaan sweetheart

Waiting for you under the sun

I'm lonely tonight
