Holy Land lyrics

Children play in a garden of eden Hunger away, food never eaten Storing treasures in the sand While we curse the promised land Like we've never been Run like thieves, die for riches Guilded doors and blood-soaked ditches But the colors of the trees are meant for you and me If we ever see Holy land Holy land Holy land In the palms of our hands You want a soul, find a soul full of kisses Who won't let you go, who knows what your wish is Even when you fawn or fight He'll see you in the light That you saw within Holy land Holy land Holy land In the palms of our hands Holy land Holy land Holy land In the palms of our hands I went away, to be all by myself where Children don't play, hearts hide too scared I would never have believed It still would follow me Like a prayer shot south Sat on a cold and lonely thruway Fought every old and every new way Til I looked out of the glass And I felt it fallin' fast Out of my mouth
