Promised Land

Ooh-ooh-ooh...

If you've ever loved somebody
But got nothing back in return
It's a cold empty feeling
But I guess there's always lessons to be learned
When you think you've got all the answers
But your life lies in disarray
It's a never-ending story
Is that the price we all gotta pay
Then you came around
You picked me up and you dusted me down

It's been a long, long road
But I've found the promised land
Carried a heavy, heavy load
But I've found the promised land
The promised land, yeah, yeah

You're a picture of innocence
You're my angel in white
You came down to watch over me
Hear my prayer, be my guiding light
Through my trials and tribulations
You always show me the way
And you lead me from temptation
Where a mortal man would stray
Your sacred heart
Healed my wounds and let me make a new start

It's been a long, long road
But I've found the promised land
Carried a heavy, heavy load
But I've found the promised land
Oh, promised land, yeah

I've been looking for somebody
To bring me in from the cold
I was lost in the wilderness
But you threw me a lifeline to hold

Whoo...

It's been a long, long road
But I've found the promised land
(Found the promised land)

It's been a long, long road
But I've found the promised land
Carried a heavy, heavy load
But I've found the promised land
Yes, I've found the promised land

Heavy load
Promised land
