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 All Lyrics and Music are property of Russell Wolff, Cueball Records, & Russellwolff.com.
