Lyrics The Tiger Lillies

The Tiger Lillies

Promised Land

I don't know why we're singing

Nobody hears

I don't know why we're happy sometimes

While we're full of fear

Then you take us by the hand

Lead us to the promised land

I don't know where we're going

And for how many years

I don't know why it's hot outside

And so cold in here

Then you take us by the hand

Lead us to the promised land

I don't know why we're smiling

The world's full of tears

I don't know why it's hot outside

and so cold in here

Then you take us by the hand

Lead us to the promised land

Promised land
