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

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
