Janis Ian — The Last Great Place

[Verse 1] Time has come To be with the moon and sun Here at the edge of the sky Shake off this city and fly Mmm, lost so long Can't find where I belong I'm empty, tied to the ground [Chorus] Tear down the walls Let me stand in the heart of the land I want to breathe it and see it And touch it whenever I can 'Cause it's the last great place (It's the last great place) It's the last great place to stand The heart of the land [Verse 2] Oh my soul Cannot believe what I'm told I've heard the river and sky Are dying to keep my alive I'm hungry for mercy My body can't be denied [Chorus] Tear down the walls Let me stand in the heart of the land I want to breathe it and see it And touch it whenever I can 'Cause it's the last great place (It's the last great place) It's just the last great place to stand The heart of the land [Instrumental] [Chorus] Tear down the walls Let me stand in the heart of the land I want to breathe it and see it And touch it whenever I can 'Cause it's the last great place (It's the last great place) It's the last great place to stand The heart of the land Tear down the walls Let me stand in the heart of the land I want to breathe it and see it And touch it whenever I can It's the last (Tear down the walls) great place (It's the last great place) It's just the (Tear down the walls) last great place to stand
