This is Carole's cracker off the Rhymes and Reasons Album(1972) It is in the correct key , but transposing makes it easier. It is about her home in Connecticut. Intro several times Verse 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, Chorus 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. Verse 2 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. Chorus 2 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. Bridge 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 Chorus 3 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.
