Come back sister now as fast as you can
well you know that i'm not as bad as they say I am
No fiend or foul, just the name of the game
well they all left just the way they came
Well I'm sure not feelin tough
and I'm sure not feelin tall
well I'm sure that you are not feeling me at all
you know I could be right cos I'm not sure that I am wrong
but I thought that time was meant for more than just getting along
so lets not just get along now
lets get along in style
cos' you know that i'm pretty sure that this is more worthwhile
I think it's time we gave this thing the hard-sell
cos love was meant to live and not mearly just to dwell
not just to dwell
I wanna hold your hand
start workin' on our promised land
well I dont think you understand
but this time we did some
work on our promised land
well tonight I wanna be that line
yeah the one that I just told you
and tonight i wanna be that story
yeah the one that I just sold you
lets take it to the land of fantasy where all things are real
where the enemy's not a ghost
but one you can touch and feel
no the chains they are not metal
no there only made of steel
where the magic's elemental and the right words can heal
lets become that dignity
become that grace
it's time to light your candle in a dark and lonely place
well in a dark and lonely place
well i'm not sure if you understand
but this time we did some
work on our promised land
I wanna hold your hand
start workin' on our promised land
well I dont think you understand
but this time we did some
work on our promised land
Come back sister now as fast as you can
well you know that i'm not as bad as they say I am
No fiend or foul, just the name of the game
well they all left just the way they came
I wanna hold your hand
start workin' on our promised land
well I dont think you understand
but this time we did some
work on our promised land
I wanna hold your hand
start workin' on our promised land
well I'm not sure you understand
but this time we did some
work on our promised land
