My girlfriend's in Albania, my ex-wife's in Tasmania,
|
And I'm in Transylvania with the vampires all around
|
My brother's in Saskatchewan, my sister's in Afghanistan
|
Still looking for the Promised Land, but the kingdom lies within.
|
|
My mother's still in vanity, I'm part of her insanity
|
My father died some years ago but I still pray for his soul.
|
Now everyone's a refugee on this planet Purgatory
|
We only find reality in the land of the chosen few.
|
|
I still get lost in wild imagination
|
I need to wake up to reality
|
I've had enough of identification
|
What can be done for a fool like me.
|
|
In the land
|
In the land
|
In the land of the chosen few
|
|
In the land
|
In the land
|
In the land of the chosen few
|
|
Love's gonna set me free.
|
|
I was dreaming of the Promised Land
|
Where people understand
|
Real love and harmony
|
I knew that I had found my way (my way) yeah (my way)
|
|
We were singing songs of innocence
|
And experience of love and harmony
|
And I knew that love was here to stay (real love) yeah (real love)
|
In the middle of a cool cool night
|
I woke up and I saw the light.
|
|
In the land (in the land)
|
In the land (in the land)
|
In the land of the chosen few (chosen few)
|
|
In the land (in the land)
|
In the land (in the land)
|
In the land of the chosen few
|
|
I still get lost in wild imagination
|
I need to wake up to reality
|
I've had enough of identification
|
What can be done for a fool like me.

|
In the land (in the land)
|
In the land (in the land)
|
In the land of the chosen few (chosen few)
|
I still get lost in wild imagination
|
I need to wake up to reality
|
I've had enough of identification
|
What can be done for a fool like me.
