Promise Land Lyrics by Joan Armatrading

Promise Land Lyrics

    All this time i have followed the rules
    And i've lived the perfect life
    Alright
    By somebody else's standards
    All this time i did not feel too bad
    But i was not what you call happy
    Not really
    I was searching for something
    And all this time you were standing by
    And all this time you were waiting

    All this time i've been living a lie
    And i even fooled myself completely
    Now i'm really ready
    Right or wrong
    I will follow your course
    And if you go down i'll drown
    So save me
    I'm not as strong as i look yea
    All this time i've been saying
    No
    But all this time
    I've been meaning

    Yes i'm ready to take your hand
    Follow you into the promise land
    Ooh yea let's talk about it
    I'm a fool for you
    Ducking and diving
    'cos i'm a fool for you
    All this time i've been saying
    No
    But all this time
    I've been meaning
    Yes i'm ready to take your hand
    Follow you into the promise land
