From This Valley (Live at Amoeba) lyrics

by

Leonard Cohen


[Verse 1: Joy Williams]
Oh, the desert dreams of a river
That will run down to the sea
Like my heart longs for an ocean
To wash down over me

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one that I love

[Verse 2: John Paul White with Joy Williams]
Oh, the outcast dreams of acceptance
Just to find pure love's embrace
Like an orphan longs for its mother
May you hold me in your grace

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one that I love

[Bridge: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Ooh, whoa oh, whoa oh oh
Ooh, whoa oh, whoa oh oh
[Verse 3: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, the caged bird dreams of a strong wind
That will flow beneath her wings
Like a voice longs for a melody
Oh, Jesus, carry me

[Chorus: Joy Williams & John Paul White]
Oh, won't you take me from this valley
To that mountain high above?
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one that I love
Oh, I will pray, pray, pray 'til I see your smiling face
I will pray, pray, pray to the one that I love
