paroles de chanson In a Broken Promised Land - Big Country

The past is a foreign country
Two sides tore apart
In the great scheme of tomorrow
What no one really knows
The blood line has diverted
Like a river that overflows
Oh, where there′s temptation
Oh, there is revelation
Oh-oh, across a thousand nations
Is this the rise or is this the fall?
Of the broken promise land
Roses and ashes lie
Where your shadow falls
In a broken promise land
It takes an honest man to heed the call
A storm blows up in the desert
A hurricane hits the shore
There's a thousand stars in the night sky
I wonder which one could be yours?
Oh, I′m not going backwards
Oh, I'm only facing forwards
Oh-oh, be it left or right
Be it right or wrong
The time has come
For the broken promise land
Roses and ashes lie
Where your shadow falls
In a broken promise land
All that you had to give
You gave for us all
The past is a foreign country
Two sides tore apart
Tore apart
In a broken promise land
In a broken promise land
Where your shadow lies
Roses and ashes will fall
In a broken promise land
Roses and ashes lie
Where your shadow falls
