Generate meaning
1
There's a Bible on the dresser and a sign hung on the door
2
And a woman in my arms shouldn't be
3
I'm to the point of no returning but I've been here before
4
This cheatin' life is nothing new to me.
5
There's someone to be considered I call her on the phone
6
And say the job is taking longer that I planned
7
I don't have the heart to tell her that a stranger's turned me on
8
And I'm headin' for the broken promise land.
9
Tonight I'm crossing over and I'll reach the cheatin' side
10
And I'll hate myself for coming here again
11
Where the streets are paved with misery and lives are built on lies
12
A place they call the broken promise land.
13
Found a note left on the dresser and a key left in the door
14
On the floor I found her golden wedding band
15
Guess she finally had to tell me she's not waiting anymore
16
And she's headin' for the broken promise land.
17
Tonight she's crossing over and she'll reach the cheatin' side
18
And I'll hate myself for coming here again
19
Where the streets are paved with misery and lives are built on lies
20
A place they call the broken promise land
21
And it's more than I can stand
