The Promised Land
(c)1999 Russell Wolff - ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

I come from a town called patience
my parents lived in exile
found my home behind the gardens of commoners I moved around for quite a while

Until one day I heard you say to me
Like the ocean to the sand
Come with me and let me show you
The promised land

You were brought up by the royals
Parents spoke with silver tongues
Forget the tired, the poor, the lowly huddled masses As long as their princess got to be young

I still remember what you said to me
When you finally took my hand
Come with me and I will take you
To the promised land

Lie awake and see what I can see
The truth is not as real as it may seem And just because you know me in my dreams It's not enough to satisfy, what love was meant to be

Now our friends won't look upon us
This town's ablaze with unauthorized biography About a poor boy in a rich town
The princess and the pea

I still remember what you said to me
When you finally took my hand
Come with me and let me love you...
Come with me and let me love you...
Take a walk and let's get lost... in the promised land
