the land of planty - leonard cohen lyrics
don?t really know who sent me
to raise my voice and say:
may the lights in the land of plenty
shine on the truth some day.
i don?t know why i come here,
knowing as i do,
what you really think of me,
what i really think of you.
for the millions in a prison,
that wealth has set apart ?
for the christ who has not risen,
from the caverns of the heart ?
for the innermost decision,
that we cannot but obey –
for what?s left of our religion,
i lift my voice and pray:
may the lights in the land of plenty
shine on the truth some day.
i know i said i?d meet you,
i?d meet you at the store,
but i can?t buy it, baby.
i can?t buy it anymore.
and i don?t really know who sent me,
to raise my voice and say:
may the lights in the land of plenty
shine on the truth some day.
i don?t know why i come here,
knowing as i do,
what you really think of me,
what i really think of you.
for the innermost decision
that we cannot but obey
for what?s left of our religion
i lift my voice and pray:
may the lights in the land of plenty
shine on the truth some day.
