Promised Land

Lyrics

[Verse 1] All the trees you see, started out as seeds Then they grew and they grew So much bigger than they were I don't think we're any different All we strive to be, starts with you and me Oh, we grew, oh, we grew So much better than we were We can grow more I believe it [Chorus] And I know it's getting hard to remember where we started We're in the middle of the road to the promised land If we hold on I promise we'll see a better plan And I know it's getting hard to remember how we got here We're in the middle of the road to the promised land If we hold on I promise we'll see a better plan [Verse 2] Don't you know my dear, I'm blinded by the fear That we'll lose, oh, we'll lose precious seconds in the sand And in the end see it fruitless But this much is clear, all throughout the years Oh, he used, oh, he used all the time we thought was damned And all the cuts and the bruises [Chorus] And I know it's getting hard to remember where we started We're in the middle of the road to the promised land If we hold on I promise we'll see a better plan And I know it's getting hard to remember how we got here We're in the middle of the road to the promised land If we hold on I promise we'll see a better plan [Bridge] Our fathers gave us all the faith their fathers never had And our mothers gave us all the love they wished to receive Oh, how blessed is the land Our children will lay their heads down and settle in [Outro] And I know it's getting hard to remember how we started We're in the middle of the road to the promised land If we hold on I promise I'll be a better man
