Текст песни Promised Land (Bobby Caldwell) с переводом

We’ve been searchin' up and down this weary country

Worn out, looking for ways that we can feed our hungry

We were told the streets were paved with gold

And the future would be ours to hold

But we’ve seen the dream get bought and sold

We don’t wanna hear it anymore

'Cause the common man

Has heard all these promises before

In the promised land

We try to be faithful to our true convictions

But there’s so much danger in the heart’s addictions

We were told that we could have it all

Now our backs are up against the wall

As we stand looking at the rise and fall

In the promised land

We don’t wanna hear it anymore

'Cause the common man

Has heard all these promises before

Smoldering ice

Concrete and steel

Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real

Tell me where did we go wrong

And what will it take

To heal this condition

Before it’s too late
