Promise Land

(album: Elation - 2012)

Took so long to understand
What it takes to be a man
Saw the writing on the wall
But I looked the other way

Didn't make the best decisions
Didn't have the best plan
Life showed me I was wrong
As I slowly lost my way

Standing in the pouring rain
She saw me and you felt the pain
Then you came into my life

Your love's the Promise Land
Gives me a reason to be
And I'll be the best I can
Your love's the Promise Land

So many roads, so many signs
I have finally turned the tide
Your love will show me all I need to know
I won't have to live the lie

Now I'm dancing in the pouring rain
Laughing in the face of pain
Since you came into my life

Your love's the Promise Land
Gives me a reason to be
'Cause I'll do the best I can
Your love's the Promise Land

I'm dancing in the pouring rain
Laughing in the face of pain
Since you came into my life

Your love's the Promise Land
Gives me a reason to be
I'll be the best I can
Your love's the Promise Land

Your love's (yes, your love) the Promise Land
Gives me a reason to be (gives me a reason)
I'll be a better man 'cause now I know
Your love's the Promise Land
