Land of Canaan - Live at Little Five Points Pub, Atlanta, GA - 1989

This is a rock 'n' roll song by Amy Ray

You can go to the east to find your
Your inner hemisphere
You say we're under the same sky
Baby, it's time to realize
Honey, it's not that clear

I'm not your promised land
Aw, I know that I'm not
I'm not your promised one
I'm not the land of Canaan, oh, oh, yeah
Waiting for you under the sun

I'm lonely tonight, I'm missing you now
Wanting your love and you're giving it out
I'm lonely tonight, I'm lonely tonight
I'm lonely tonight (ooh)
Yeah (hoo-ooh-ooh-hoo)
Yeah

Well, the meaning's changed
For what it's worth, just a senseless game
(Yeah) aw, aw, yeah, now
Well, I should think of a love
You know, it's fear еvery time I hear
Honеy, your heartbeat strain

It's not the fallen man
Oh, no, no, it's not
It's not the call of time (no, no)
It's just the London skyline, oh, sweetheart
Telling me you're not mine

I'm lonely tonight, I'm missing you now
Wanting your love and you're giving it out
I'm lonely tonight, I'm lonely tonight
I'm lonely tonight (ooh)
Aw, yeah, aw (hoo-ooh-ooh-hoo)
Yeah (hoo)

My blood is running dry, my skin is
My skin is growing thin (skin is growin')
Aw, yeah (thin, yeah)
For every time you find yourself
You lose a little of me but (you lose a little bit)
Honey, it's growing thin (you lose a little bit)
It's just a raging cycle (it's just a raging, raging cycle)

Until we bring it all (I'd like to)
To the end of the line? (bring it to the end)
Hold me, baby
From inside this existence (I'm lonely tonight)
Oh, time is not on my side

I'm lonely tonight, I'm missing you now
Wanting your love and you're giving it out
I'm lonely tonight, I'm lonely tonight
I'm lonely tonight, yeah, man (ooh)
Hoo-ooh-ooh-hoo, yeah

I'm not your promised land (I'm lonely)
Not your promised one (tonight)
Not your promised land (I'm tryin' to tell you that I'm)
I'm not your promised one (lonely tonight)

I'm not the land of Canaan (I'm lonely tonight)
Oh, sweetheart
I'm not the land of Canaan (I'm lonely)
Oh, oh, baby (tonight)
I'm not the land of Canaan
Sweetheart
Waiting for you under the sun
I'm lonely tonight

Thank you
Thanks y'all
