Lyrics
Show me a promised land, and I will go anywhere
And if you ask me to take my time I'll wait for years
I'll hold on, though the whole world tells me I'm wrong
Someday, someday
But it seems so long
Ask me to prove my love and I will do anything
So if they turn off the light of the sun, why should I care?
I'll hold on, though the whole world tells me I'm wrong
Then in the morning as you leave me
You touch my hand to show how much you care
But just when I need you
You won't be there
Oh, I'll hold on, but I need a shoulder to lean on
Why if you love me, must you leave me?
Why are you going anywhere?
Why must our love be something in the air?
Cause just when I need you
You won't be there
You won't be there
