歌词
Heaven sent the promised land
Looks alright from where I stand
'Cause I'm the man on the outside looking in
♪
Waiting on the first step
Show me where the key is kept
Point me down the right line, because it's time
To let me in from the cold
Turn my lead into gold
'Cause there's a chill wind blowing in my soul
And I think I'm growing old
♪
Flash the readies
What's, uh the deal?
Got to make it to the next meal
Try to keep up with the turning of the wheel
♪
Mile after mile (mile after mile)
Stone after stone (stone after stone)
Turn to speak, but you're alone
Million miles from home, you're on your own
So let me in from the cold
Turn my lead into gold
'Cause there's a chill wind blowing in my soul
And I think I'm growing old
♪
Fire bright by candlelight
And her by my side
If she prefers we will never stir again
Someone sent the promised land
And I grabbed it with both hands
Now I'm the man on the inside looking out
♪
Hear me shout, come on in
What's the news and where you been
'Cause there's no wind left in my soul
And I've grown old
