Promise Land Lyrics

Promise Land
Lyrics and music: Derek Nakamoto, Rick Barron and Bob Savenberg

Standing tall under the weight of the world
Ain't it funny how the years unfurl
Found myself, found my strength
In a promise

I told her one day we would leave it all
The city streets where the mighty fall
Made my commitment, made her believe
In a promise

It's taken every moment
We've shed our share of tears
Time had done its dance and we're still here
Oh and I'm lost within her now
Together we are bound

(Chorus)

Open our eyes, open our ears
To the Promise Land
Open our minds, open our hearts
To the promise Land

Just like I'm counting on the rising sun
I believe in the only one
I want to hold when the day is done
That's a promsie

While everyone around us
Struggle with their fear
We have each other to love
And we're still here
Yeah we have built a bridge
That lead our hearts to here

(Chorus)

When we are young without a care
Life can take us anywhere
There's a heaven we'll see from there
Mothers and fathers
And sisters and brothers
Living their dreams

(Chorus)
