Promised Land
Pau Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

PROMISED LAND.

Take it back, relax.
I don't know how to clear my mind.
You are the one I thought I never had to leave behind.

Let's just be friends, it was not a joke to me.
I know I said, that things would be different this time.
I know I promised gold and, the promised land.
I know I said, that things would be different this time.
I know I promised gold and, the promised land.

Take it back, the look I see, you shrug just by the sight of me.
I know I made the wrong turn when I made you leave my side.

Let's just be friends, it was not a joke to me.

I know I said, that things would be different this time.
I know I promised gold and, the promised land.




I know I said, that things would be different this time.
I know I promised gold and, the promised land.

Pau's lyrics are emotive, and the pain he feels about the situation is palpable throughout the song. He longs to regain what he lost, but it's evident that he knows that's impossible. Instead, he expresses the desire to remain friends with his ex-partner, hoping that they can at least maintain some sort of connection. The repeated lines, "I know I said that things would be different this time. I know I promised gold and, the promised land" reiterate how much he regrets the decisions that he made and how much he wishes they could go back and do things differently.


The song "Promised Land" is a poignant reminder of the pain that comes with regretting the mistakes we've made in past relationships.
