THE PROMISED LAND

 

I WAS BORN WITH A POCKETFUL OF SAND

LAID WASTE TO ALL THE BEST MADE PLANS

CROSSED THE OCEAN TO STAKE A CLAIM FOR ME

TO DISCOVER ALL THE THINGS I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE

Chorus

THEN I LOOKED UP AND SAW YOU STANDING THERE

WITH FLOWERS IN YOUR HAND

AND THE SUNSHINE IN YOUR HAIR

THEN I KNEW I’D FOUND THE PROMISED LAND

THEN I KNEW I’D FOUND THE PROMISED LAND

 

I WAS SEARCHING IN HOPE OF SOMETHING BETTER

A SIMPLE LIFE MORE OR LESS UNFETTERED

BUT YOU CAME ALONG AND CHANGED MY PLANS AND SCHEMES

AND I’M HAPPIER NOW THEN I THINK I’VE EVER BEEN

Chorus

THERE ARE TIMES WHEN THIS WORLD MAKES NO SENSE

THEN YOU MUST PUT YOUR FAITH IN LOVE AND PROVIDENCE

NOW I’VE FOUND YOU I’M NEVER LETTING GO

AS YOU TAUGHT MORE ME THAN I’D EVER PLANNED TO KNOW

Chorus

 

FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD....For James

 

WHO KNOWS WHERE IT GOES

SOMETIMES WE ‘LL NEVER KNOW THE ANSWER

THE PLACES WE’VE NEVER BEEN

THE THINGS THAT WE’VE NEVER SEEN

DON’T MATTER

WHAT MATTERS IS TO LOVE YOU

HERE AND NOW

AND I’LL FIND MY WAY THROUGH ALL THIS PAIN SOMEHOW

Chorus

AND THE STORIES LEFT UNTOLD

ARE JUST MOMENTS YET TO UNFOLD

AND IN THE SUNSHINE AND THE COLD

YOU’LL BE HOLDING ME

AND I’LL BE A STRONGER MAN

WHEN I’M FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD

 

THEY SAY THAT TIME WILL HEAL

THE SORROW THAT I FEEL

I GUESS SO

BUT MY FRIENDS THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND

THAT I NEEDED A HELPING HAND

HOW COULD THEY KNOW ?

THAT I MISS YOU MORE THAN WORDS COULD EVER SAY

BUT I’LL FIND YOU IN MY DREAMS

EVERY DAY

AND THE STORIES LEFT UNTOLD

ARE JUST MOMENTS YET TO UNFOLD

AND IN THE SUNSHINE AND THE COLD

I'LL BE HOLDING YOU

AND I'LL BE A STRONGER MAN

NOW I'M FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD
