The Promised Land Lyrics - Hayward Justin (moody Blues)

They came from nowhere, with nowhere else to go 

They came with nothing but pockets full of dreams 

They came in hope, looking for the promised land 

They brought their faith, believing in their hearts 

They brought their children, searching for a new start 

They came looking for the promised land 

And all the rumours said it was heaven there 

And all the signs were pointing to a new world 

Someway somehow there's got to be...a place for us, 

Somewhere...there's got to be 

A better way, a new beginning, a second chance 

...it's all in the new world 

Equality, liberty, freedom 

...it's all in the new world 

A better life, a brighter future, the right to believe 

...it's all in the new world 

For you and me, it's going to be...freedom 

...it's all in the new world 

Through the ages, all through history 

They braved the deserts, sailed the raging sea 

And left their homes, looking for the promised land 

They brought their culture, pride and prejudice 

All they wanted was a reason to exist 

And still they come, looking for the promised land 

And all the rumours said it was heaven there 

And all the signs were pointing to a new world 

Someway somehow there's got to be...a place for us 

Somewhere...there's got to be 

A better way, a new beginning, a second chance 

...it's all in the new world 

Equality, liberty, freedom 

...it's all in the new world 

A better life, a brighter future, the right to believe 

...it's all in the new world 

For you and me, it's going to be...freedom 

...it's all in the new world
