lyrics

The Promised Land


We’re on our way to the promised land
No matter what you say, nothing can ever hold us back
The cymbals’ sashay as they feel the tip-tappin’ of our feet walking on past
On this wind-swept bay the stars are all falling so fast it feels as if they are on the attack

Because I know
Yes, I know we’re going home


There are dancers of light pirouetting as we walk through
Pianos tinkling in time on all four corners of this moon
No clocks tick-tocking in rhyme as we’re surrounded by the colors red, orange, green, grey, gold and blue
A huge blinking sign proclaiming “Don’t you worry about a thing! Rest your bones, you are just dreaming!”

Because I know
Yes, I know we’re already home
