The Broken Promise Land lyrics
There's a Bible on the dresser and a sign hung on the door
And a woman in my arms that shouldn't be
I'm to the point of no returning, but I've been here before
This cheating life is nothing new to me
There's someone to be considered, I call her on the phone
And say the job is taking longer than I planned
I don't have the heart to tell her, that a stranger turned me on
And I'm heading for the Broken Promise Land
Tonight I'm crossing over and I'll reach the cheating side
And I'll hate myself for coming here again
Where the streets are paved with misery and lives are built on lies
The place they call the Broken Promise Land
Found the note left on the dresser and the key left in the door
And on the floor I found her golden wedding band
Guess she finally had to tell me, she's not waiting here no more
And she's heading for the Broken Promise Land
Tonight she's crossing over and she'll reach the cheating side
And I'll hate myself for giving her the chance
'Cause the streets are paved with misery and lives are built on lies
The place they call the Broken Promise Land
And it's more than I can stand
