Lyrics

every now and then
i'm gonna make you cry
you won't remember when
i won't remember why
every peace I find
seems to rise to say
live for every light
live for every day

i raise my hand, i raise my hand
i raise my hand, i raise my hand
i raise my hand to the promised land

little girl you're all we've got for now
you've gotta find a way to save us now
it's turning dark and soon the chill will come
if you find it in your heart would you find me some?

i raise my hand, i raise my hand
i raise my hand, i raise my hand
i raise my hand to the promised land

i'll say goodbye and say farewell, it seems
my work is doneā€“no more chasing dreams
if you left, leave my heart to spare
we could part but i'd still find you there

i raise my hand, i raise my hand
i raise my hand, i raise my hand
i raise my hand to the promised land
