Do you remember the good years in Canaan?

To those Canaan days

Our extravagant, elegant soirées

The gayest the Bible has seen

        Dm              F        Dm
It's funny, but, since we lost Joseph

        D             D7     Gm
We've gone to the other extreme

   Gm
No-one comes to dinner now

We'd only eat them anyhow

I even find I'm missing Joseph's dreams

We've gone to the other extreme

 Gm
Perhaps we all misjudged the lad

 Dm
Perhaps he wasn't quite that bad

   A                A7
And how we miss his entertaining

 Dm
Dreams
